A 4–6 mile auto loop through tidal marsh, creeks and pine islands in Savannah National Wildlife Refuge—prime for wading birds, herons, egrets, raptors, alligators and mirror-like water reflections. Best at sunrise/sunset for warm light and calm water; weekday mornings have fewer cars. Refuge open daylight hours; park near the trailhead/lot and shoot from pullouts or use the car as a blind. Expect mosquitoes in warm months; bring bug spray and a long lens for wildlife.
