The cottage was only a few blocks from the beach and all the restaurants in the area. However, it was very quiet with little traffic. We loved the pizza and the icecream shops with their fabulous food, and they also were within a couple blocks. For most the trip, we relaxed on the beach and enjoyed the pleasant water. We also made a trip to Fort Pulaski and some of the surrounding sites. This was our first time going on a "family" vacation other than visiting our extended families. We will definitely be back.
