SHELLMAN BLUFF - If there’s a place where “Keep this a secret’’ comes to mind, it’s the Georgia coast, strung with barrier islands as big as Bermuda, and back islands - 1,600 of them - as large as hundreds of acres to the size of a pickup truck. To find so many wildly beautiful islands in one state is remarkable enough, but it’s the fishing that draws anglers here.

In case you're wondering why we came to choose Shellman Bluff as our destination of choice, here's the skinny as it appeared in the Boston Globe on Sunday. Naturally, we are ahead of the curve!

Hi Kate,
You are a terrific writer and I am enjoying your Posts about Shellman Bluff and spending time in Moonpie Cottage.
It is a great pleasure to share this area with guests who come visit and find the beauty, peace and serenity in the simple life here on the unspoiled coast of Georgia.
Looking forward to more sharing.
See you Friday at the Jump Up at Serenity Place.

Hey friends,
Glad you're enjoying this lovely part of the world. I saw the article in Sunday's Globe and was about to email you -- but you beat me to it. Have a relaxing, rollicking good time. Hugs to you both, and to Cajun. Put down some major oysters for me!

Serious shrimp boil this evening. The oysters are good but the shrimp are out of this world. Oh my.
