Burrells Creek is a tidal creek located near St. Mary's in Camden County, Georgia. It is a saltwater feature within the coastal network of brackish and saltwater bodies in the region. A primary public access point for paddlers is the Crooked River hand launch area, which is situated along Route 25 at a small bridge. This launch offers no amenities. The creek's tidal nature is confirmed by a USGS water level monitoring station located at Highway 40 near St. Mary's, indicating significant tidal influence that paddlers must account for. The surrounding landscape includes extensive coastal wetlands with numerous swamps and tidal creeks throughout Camden County, creating a paddling environment through salt marsh. The creek is a meandering waterway typical of the Georgia coast. The area is near Cumberland Island National Seashore, offering potential for wildlife viewing and a relatively undeveloped setting. Paddlers should plan their trips around the tide cycle, as currents can be strong, and be prepared for exposure to wind and open water where the creek meets larger sounds. Paddlers should consult local tide charts and marine forecasts before departure.
