A number of people suggested we stop at Jekyll Island. We left Fernandina Beach at 8:40 a.m. and arrived at Jekyll Island at 12 noon. We should have gone for a bike ride as soon as we arrived, but there were thunderstorms looming. We decided to to wait, but it didn't actually start raining until 4:30 p.m. We were glad to be at the dock when the storm hit. We were bounced around quite a bit with lightning and thunder all around us. Checking the weather report after the storm showed gusts up to 40 mph.
As the rain was stopping, we took a bike ride to the resort. There were bike trails throughout the island, but we missed seeing them because of the storm. We stopped at the restaurant at the dock for an unimpressive dinner/snack.
