| Halloween Happenings The moss draped live oaks and early morning fog set an eerie vibe island wide, and guests of the Jekyll Island Club and Jekyll Ocean Club can take advantage of a deal so great it’s almost scary. Book three nights and pay for two on most dates through 2024. Combine that with a spooky craft cocktail like a Vampire’s Kiss Margarita or a Blood Moon Mary and a haunted trolley tour for the ultimate in Halloween fun. (Recipes and photos in link below) Shrimp ‘n Grits The
annual two-day celebration of the beloved Southern staple is slated for
October 25 & 26 in the historic district of Jekyll Island. Guests can
choose to be in the heart of the action at the Jekyll Island Club, or choose

goers can collect a recipe card for club’s award-winning shrimp ‘n grits
at the festival booth, but if you have a hankering now, here’s a link
to the best of the fest. Can’t get enough? The club will host a Shrimp
‘n Grits brunch Sunday the 27th. Admission to the festival is free. Make
