Rainbow Island
What can’t you do at Rainbow Island? The home of one of Sea Island’s most beloved outdoor dinner traditions is also your home base for exploring Sea Island’s waterways. Kayak to a beach for a picnic lunch, learn to sail, or take your yoga practice from the mat to the paddleboard. Sign up for a hawk walk, falconry meet and greet, marsh and beach horseback ride, even host a casual private dinner or event.
