Why St. George Island Is One of the Best January Vacations in the USA
With sugar-white sand and crystal-clear water, The Forgotten Coast is one of the most beautiful places to visit in winter in the USA. St. George Island experiences mild weather this time of year, offering the best winter vacations for families and couples. In January, the average temperature ranges between the mid 50’s to 60’s. While it’s too cool to swim, this is the ideal time to walk, bike, or jog along the beach! Begin your day by watching a postcard-worthy sunrise over the Gulf of Mexico. Then, enjoy a stroll along the uncrowded shoreline while you comb the beach for shells.
In addition to beautiful beaches, you’ll find tons of other fun activities to enjoy here in winter. Take a hike at the 2023-acre state park or take a bike ride along the island’s scenic 6.3-mile bike path. Are you feeling adventurous?
