One of the best parts about living in Georgia is that you have the beauty of the ocean just a quick drive away. Not many other states can claim to be coastal states, but Georgia sure can. In fact, fishing is a huge hobby for many visitors and residents of the state. There is even one small town that’s a historic fishing village—and a popular one at that. Take a look at the beautiful, extraordinarily preserved fishing town of Shellman Bluff, one of the best small towns in Georgia.

This old, historic fishing town is located south of Savannah.
