We love having the Summit at the beloved Sea Island because of the surplus of activities that happen to be all around. That being said, we asked our 2019 Summit presenters what activities are their favorite to do post-Summit (because who doesn’t love an extended stay?!). Here’s what they shared…

BRIAN HART HOFFMAN OF HOFFMAN MEDIA

“SPA! SPA! And SPA! If you haven’t seen the amazing waterfall sanctuary that begins the relaxation experience, then book your appointment today!”

MELANY ROBINSON OF POLISHED PIG MEDIA

“A run on the beach.”

CARRIE MOREY OF CALLIE’S BISCUITS

“If you ever land on my instastories you’ll see that I always try to kick off a day filled with meetings with a spin class when I travel for work. That said, I’m looking forward to a leisurely bike ride down Sea Island Drive – maybe even balancing a margarita in one hand!”

BROOKE BELL OF HOFFMAN MEDIA

“A trip to Sea Island isn’t complete without some quiet time at the spa. I can close my eyes and hear the waterfall now! I also love ducking into the little chapel for a moment of solitude. And you might see me sneaking a cookie or two in the lobby in the afternoon.”

PHYLLIS HOFFMAN DEPIANO OF HOFFMAN MEDIA

“Shopping—I’ve heard the shops are wonderful, and I rarely take time to explore.”

MARY BETH GREENE OF MB GREENE BAGS

“I plan to enjoy a Sea Island sunrise. The beach is my happy place and I am not very disciplined about making time for quiet time. I love every minute of my multitasking, fast paced life, but there is nothing more calming than a sunrise on the water. The Southern C Summit and Sea Island property create the perfect balance to “plug in” and “unplug” all in one place!”

AMY MILLS OF 17TH STREET BBQ

“Block out some time to relax in the spa. Book a massage or a facial, or simply relax in the mineral pool with a glass of Prosecco. Finding time to recharge and just be still is essential. Get up 30 minutes early and have coffee in the solarium. So civilized!”

LIBBA OSBORNE OF LEAPFROG PR CO.

As a long-time Summit attendee and frequent Sea Island visitor, Libba Osborne has a host of activities that are her regulars.  Check out her post on how she spends every year post-Summit!
