I feel silly for asking but what does everyone mean when they simply say Pirates? Is that just referring to the place on the beach at the Bight/Norman or is there some place else I am not aware of involving pirates?

Also, is Spring Bay a place you can stay overnight or is it a day stop only like the Baths? Can you take a dinghy to shore in Spring Bay?

Just notice you guys live in GA to allirow. We live in Carrollton. You guys spend time on Lanier for sailing or mainly charter? We are taking a bunch of kids on our upcoming trip too so thanks for starting the thread.


We do go to LL a lot in the summer. We have a 23ft. Larson up there. Usually leave the sailing to the experts, LOL...always happy to help/deck hand, but we go with a captain. You have a sailboat up there? Pirates is "Pirate's Bight" on Norman I...big sign on the roof says Pirates...or at least when I was last there it did, but heard that building burned down. Spring Bay is close to the Baths, east of them and a beautiful beach with boulders...I'd imagine you can dinghy in there. Have fun on your trip...when are you going? <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/Joy.gif" alt="" />


Never really been to LL but did hear there was quite a few sailors up there. I figured that's what everyone meant by Pirates but wanted to make sure. I know where Spring Bay is but wasn't sure if some people were over
nighting there or not.

Great ideas from everyone in this thread. We spent a night at Scrub in February but not sure if they will let you come in for a day stop or not. Nice pool area with slide which the kids would enjoy.

Never done the hike up Norman. May need to do that this time. My crew of 11, including 5 and 9 yo boys and 11 and 14 yo girls, leaves on May 28th coming back June 4th. 14 days away and cannot wait!
