About Twitty Park:
In 1924 local businessman T. L. Cain dedicated land for a park as a gift to Glynn County. For 100 years Twitty Park has served as a scenic icon of live oaks with a Spanish moss-draped canopy at the intersection of Frederica Road and Sea Island Road. Residents use the park for picnics, biking, running, walking, and observing and appreciating the natural landscape that makes Georgia’s barrier islands beautiful and unique. Twitty Park is a natural oasis on St. Simons Island in our ever-developing community.
Twitty Park is a public park intended to be held in the public trust for the citizens and visitors of Glynn County and beyond. The Glynn Environmental Coalition and local citizens are working to ensure that Glynn County maintains Twitty Park for the use and benefit of the citizens and visitors of Glynn County in perpetuity.
