Oatland Island Education Center is a unit of the Savannah-Chatham County Public Schools, and the premier environmental education center in the southeast, serving thousands of students from school systems throughout the region. Located just east of Savannah on a marsh island, the Center features a 2 mile “Native Animal Nature Trail” that winds through maritime forest, salt marsh, and freshwater wetlands. Along the way, visitors can observe native animals such as Florida panthers, Eastern timber wolves, alligators, and many more in their natural habitat. The Center is OPEN TO THE PUBLIC for self-guided trail walks Monday-Friday 9-4 and most Saturdays from 10-4. Daily admission is $3 per person, ages 4 and up.
