Wanderer Memory Trail

Jekyll Island, GA

A waterfront trail interprets the Wanderer, one of the last known ships to illegally bring captive Africans into the United States after the transatlantic slave trade had been outlawed. Sculptural and interpretive installations connect the specific landing site to the people forced ashore here in 1858.
