Jekyll Island’s Annual Treasure Hunt – January 1 – February 28
Celebrating history is always on trend on Jekyll Island where fishermen in the early 1900s, used hollow glass balls, or floats, on their nets as markers. Occasionally, the floats would break loose and wash ashore for lucky beachcombers to find. Collecting these rare glass floats became a hobby in the 1950s.
Today, Jekyll Island honors that history by selecting artists from across the country to create one-of-a-kind glass floats for its annual Island Treasures event. Visitors scour the island for clear globes hidden by volunteer Beach Buddies and redeem them for dazzling, handcrafted glass floats.
