Where the Savannah River meets the Atlantic, it forms the long border between Georgia and South Carolina before spreading into tidal marsh and shallow channels. Ships bound for the city of Savannah, founded by James Oglethorpe in 1733, passed through this entrance, and for generations the river carried cotton, rice and timber out to the wider world. Fort Pulaski, on Cockspur Island near the river's mouth, was built to guard that approach. Views like this one show how much of Georgia's coastal history depends on water and the low, shifting land along it.
