Shrimp and Grits, A Southern Classic |
The Jekyll Island Authority and the Wild GA Shrimp Assn. will be bringing the Shrimp and Grits: The Wild Georgia Shrimp Festival from September 19th-21st. This annual event is absolutely committed to upholding our fresh, wild GA shrimp versus “that imported variety from God only knows where” as well as their combination with a Southern staple---grits. Certainly other delicious seafood and shrimp dishes will also be available from several local restaurants, so bring your taste buds and come to Jekyll Island in Southeast GA for a truly entertaining experience. In addition to culinary delights, there will be wonderful music, a Family Fun Zone, vendors with arts and crafts, antiques and collectables. You will have the opportunity to take a tour of a “real” shrimp boat or to take a shrimp excursion over the weekend.
