St. Simons Sound to Brunswick

Categories :

The tides here is St. Simons vary from 7-9 feet depending on the phase of the moon.  Because of this variation, we try to leave and arrive at the marina at slack tide which is the point at which the water is neither rushing in or out.  We do this because handling the boat can be more difficult with water rushing in or out and winds blowing different directions.  We headed out of Morningstar Marina about 8:00 and needed to stay out until about 2:00 to hit the next slack tide.  After heading out to sea for 3 miles, we turned around and headed to Brunswick.
