About this home
Private Island Offering ~ Lower Bar Boar Island, Georgia.
Now is your chance to own an exceptionally rare piece of the Georgia coast ~ a 157.83-acre private island (approximately 15 acres of uplands) set directly along the Intracoastal Waterway at the southeastern tip of Barbour Island, ideally positioned between two of the region’s most treasured barrier islands, Saint Catherines Island and Blackbeard Island.
A Truly Untouched Coastal Environment:
Lower Bar Boar Island encompasses some of the most pristine remaining salt marsh on the East Coast, offering sweeping, unobstructed views and an extraordinary level of privacy. Located within a DNR-protected shellfish zone, the surrounding waters are monitored monthly for quality and support an abundance of oysters, clams, shrimp, crab, and fish.
This rich estuarine system also serves as a critical feeding ground for endangered birds and diverse coastal wildlife, making the island not only beautiful, but ecologically significant.
Historical Significance:
Historical records and aerial imagery indicate evidence of early-period settlement on the island. A remarkable ~4,000-year-old shell midden mound remains on site a rare archaeological feature that connects the property to Georgia’s earliest coastal inhabitants.
Existing Improvements:
Private Deepwater dock constructed from Brazilian hardwood Ipe — renowned for extreme durability and minimal maintenance. Replacement cost of dock estimated at $600,000+.
Two elevated wooden camping platforms.
Picnic area for outdoor gatherings.
Trails and natural exploration opportunities throughout the upland portions.

Private airfield,
Community boat dock,

Recreational and sporting paradise,
Conservation legacy property potential,
