Celebrate Mother’s Day on Jekyll Island with an Island Treasures Hunt
Bring mom to the beautiful beaches of Jekyll Island next Sunday, May 11, for a special Mother’s Day Island Treasures Hunt. Island Treasures are the unique and colorful glass globes, hand-crafted especially for Jekyll Island by artisans across the country. Volunteer “Beach Buddies” hide the celebrated glass globes on Jekyll Island’s beaches in January and February, for beachcombers to discover throughout the spring and summer. This year, in celebration and recognition of Mother’s Day, Beach Buddies will hide an additional 20 Island Treasures on Jekyll Island’s beaches for a special Mother’s Day Island Treasures Hunt. Twenty lucky moms will find and keep their own special Mother’s Day gift while beachcombing with their families on Jekyll Island.
To complete your Mother’s Day weekend, Jekyll Island offers a variety of affordable accommodations and activities sure to please mom. If mom isn’t among the 20 lucky finders, she can always purchase her own Island Treasure from the large assortment for sale at the Jekyll Island Visitor Information Center or online at http://www.jekyllisland.com/islandtreasures. The gift shop at the Jekyll Island Visitor Information Center also offers hand-crafted pottery, jewelry, purses, home decor and unique gifts for mom.

Someone wrote me and I wanted to share….
I just wanted to thank whoever for the float hunt on Mother’s Day. I brought two friends with me
one that had never been there before and the other came with me once in January. That meant so
much to all of us and it was most enjoyable. Do you know how many floats were found? I am just
curious if you know. I have came to you island in January & February for the float hunt. I just
wanted to thank you and to let you know that the float hunt is one of the best things ever. You
have gave me and my friends and family something to look forward to from now on. I hope they
do the Mother’s Day hunt again. Your island is beautiful and we love it. Thanks for all the treasure
hunts don’t ever stop them.
