Location Characteristics: There is a lot of history in this area! Brunswick is the home of Glynn Academy High School, the 2nd oldest high school in GA. The area has been known as "The Shrimp Capital of the World" due to the large numbers of wild shrimp harvested off shore. For a relatively small community, there are many avenues for the arts. Many artists have landed here, perhaps due to the plethora of natural beauty. We have a community theater group and musical concerts are almost commonplace.
Brunswick has a diverse economy, resulting in a strong economic base. This is the home of the Federal Law Enforcement Training Center, and there are businesses ranging from paper to Gulf Stream jet retrofitting. Our Port is one of the fastest growing port systems in the U.S.
Visitors have their choice of wonderful golf courses, pristine beaches, miles of bike paths and great fishing and boating possibilities. The bird population rivals any for the bird watcher enthusiast.
