Character

The Landings functions as a self-contained resort-style community with gated security, multiple golf courses, tennis and marina facilities, and a demographic skewing toward retirees and second-home owners drawn by deep-water boating access and golf. The broader Skidaway Island area outside the gates includes the University of Georgia Skidaway Institute of Oceanography and public state park land.

History

The Landings development began in the early 1970s on land previously used for timber and agriculture, part of the broader Sun Belt golf-community boom. The community grew through subsequent decades into one of the largest gated developments on the Georgia coast, while Skidaway Island State Park preserved public marsh-front access on the island's southern end.
