? ABOUT THIS EXPERIENCE

? This is more than a hike — it’s a journey through African and African American heritage.
? The day begins with a ½-mile historical walk through replicas of Gullah Geechee culture, as powerful stories of the Igbo Landing, the Middle Passage, and the strength of our ancestors come to life.
? After the cultural walk, we’ll continue with a 3-mile hike beneath the beautiful shaded trees of Jekyll Island, featuring peaceful beach views and cool coastal air.
? The experience combines education, reflection, and movement — a powerful opportunity to learn, connect, and honor our history together.
? This is the history they don’t teach you in school, but it’s the foundation of our culture, resilience, and identity.
⸻

? WEATHER

? Expect highs near 74 °F and lows in the upper 50s — perfect fall weather for walking the coast.

? SAND GNAT ALERT

? Jekyll Island’s coast is beautiful, but the sand gnats (tiny coastal mosquitoes) can be fierce.
? Cover up from ankle to neck — not for warmth, but for protection.
? Bring bug spray or natural repellent — and bring extra if you can!
It is expected to be cold so probably not mosquitos?

? Long-sleeve breathable shirt
? Socks + closed-toe shoes (no slides or sandals)
