Brunswick day stop

We will be going through Brunswick in March and looking for things to do for a day stop. Elderly couple with limited mobility, so perhaps a drive around the city and area. Also, any restauirants suggestions. Thanks.

Brunswick, Georgia, is a charming city with a rich history and scenic views, making it a nice stop for a day, especially for travelers with limited mobility. Since you’re looking for a low-key visit, a drive around the city and nearby areas will allow you to enjoy the sights without much walking.

For a leisurely drive, you can consider the following:

• Take a scenic drive along St. Simons Island and Sea Island, which are just a short drive from Brunswick. The coastal views are beautiful, and there are plenty of pull-offs for photos without extensive walking.
• Drive through the historic downtown Brunswick area, where you can admire the old architecture, historic homes, and oak-lined streets.
• Consider a short drive along Hwy 17 to view the waterfront and the marshes along the way.
• Visit Fort Frederica National Monument on St. Simons Island for a brief stop—parking is available close to the main areas so walking is minimal.

For dining options, Brunswick offers several good choices suitable for a relaxed meal:

• The Wharf – Seafood-focused menu with views of the river, casual seating, and easy access from the car.
• Old City Public House – Comfortable, approachable menu with Southern favorites and ample seating.
• Sea Island Grill – Known for fresh seafood and classic Southern dishes, with a relaxed atmosphere.
• Back in the Day Bakery – A cozy spot for breakfast or a light lunch if you want to try local pastries and sandwiches.
