Georgia trip advice
I'm contemplating a trip to the Georgia coast and would appreciate some advice and local knowledge.
Possible trip: 8-12 days, maybe that long undeveloped stretch between Brunswick and Savannah, mostly anchor out, deserted beaches with my wife, a little fishing, crabbing, shrimping for protein. We can be completely self contained and would prefer to have the area to ourselves. My wife's definition of a good beach is one with no footprints except ours. Trip needs to be before it gets very cold(so we can swim) and not in mosquito season. I've meet salt marsh mosquitoes before and would rather not renew their aquaintance. Google earth looks like the area has lots of mostly uninhabited islands and beaches, narrow inlets with good protection for anchoring and what looks like decent depth approaching from seaward. I'm in a 25 I/O Seafari, which has more draft than a 23. Tidal range is a worry, but the area looks fabulous.
Anybody with some experience in that area or similar, South Carolina between Charleston and Georgetown, maybe? How do you handle the tidal range? Are those little inlets really navigable from the ocean? When to go? Can we get away from the mosquitoes? Seafood? Anything else I should be aware of? If I'm running along a couple of hundred yards off the beach, do I need to worry about depth at low tide?
