Exciting Summer Activities and Discounts at Jekyll Island Resorts

Summer Fun at Jekyll Island Club and Ocean Club Resorts

As summer sweeps across the country, families are making their way to the idyllic Jekyll Island to enjoy unbeatable vacation packages at the Jekyll Island Club and Ocean Club Resorts. With a plethora of offers designed to enhance family fun, this summer season promises to be the best yet!

Families can start planning their summer escapades knowing that kids under 12 can enjoy complimentary meals at both resorts when accompanied by a full-paying adult. This generous offer allows little ones to indulge in summer favorites such as hot dogs, hamburgers, chicken tenders, and much more – including the daily all-you-can-eat breakfast buffet hosted at the Grand Dining Room. For lunch and dinner, guests can choose delightful dishes from multiple on-site eateries including 80 Ocean Kitchen and Bar, the Pool House, and the Wharf.

For those seeking an adventurous twist, the resorts have organized the 'Mystery on the Marsh’ event, running from June 29 through July 3. Families are invited to partake in a variety of fun activities, starting with a complimentary spy kit given to young guests. This kit, featuring a magnifying glass, is perfect for embarking on an island scavenger hunt designed just for them. During this week, children can hunt for hidden treasure chests and transform them with their own creativity by drawing and painting. These boxes can be filled with goodies, with specially marked doubloons that can be exchanged for resort credits worth up to $50. And what’s a summer event without some ice cream? All participants can enjoy free ice cream poolside!

The highlights of the week culminate in the anticipated Diamond Heist Mystery Dinner that promises a night filled with intrigue, laughter, and a few surprises. Attendees are encouraged to be detectives, figuring out clues that weave a story of theft and deceit, all while enjoying a delectable meal. For adults without kids, there's also a more intricate scavenger hunt offering fabulous prizes, including the chance to win a complimentary night's stay!

The grand celebration for Independence Day kicks off with a thrilling bike parade on July 4, commencing at 9 a.m. This fun-filled event will feature Jekyll Island historical figures, including Jean Struthers Sears, founder of the Jekyll Island bicycle society, leading the way. Guests can join in, whether they bring their own bikes or rent one decorated for the occasion at Jekyll Wheels. Capture the festive spirit of the day with selfies and enjoy a leisurely ride around the scenic grounds.

The action continues later in the day with a Beachside Bash at the Jekyll Island Beach Pavilion starting at 5 p.m. This vibrant gathering welcomes everyone, offering delectable food, refreshing drinks, engaging games, and live music under the setting sun. Attendees are invited to bring lawn chairs and take in the beautiful ocean breeze while waiting for a spectacular fireworks display to light up the night sky.
