The ICW in Georgia consists of a series of interconnected natural and man-made waterways, including rivers, sounds, bays, and channels. These waterways are marked with navigational aids, such as buoys and markers, to assist boaters in safely navigating the route.

Major features of the ICW in Georgia include:

Savannah River: The ICW begins in Georgia at the mouth of the Savannah River, which forms part of the border between Georgia and South Carolina. The river is an important shipping channel, and it provides access to the Port of Savannah, one of the busiest container ports in the United States.

Wassaw Sound: Located south of the Savannah River, Wassaw Sound is a broad body of water that boaters traverse along the ICW. It offers scenic views and serves as a passage between the mainland and barrier islands.

St. Catherines Sound: Continuing southward, St. Catherines Sound is another significant waterway along the ICW. It separates St. Catherines Island from the mainland and provides access to the nearby barrier islands.

Sapelo Sound: South of St. Catherines Sound is Sapelo Sound, which separates Sapelo Island from the mainland. It is a popular area for recreational boating and fishing.

Doboy Sound and Altamaha Sound: These sounds are located further south along the Georgia coast. They provide additional passages for vessels traveling the ICW and offer access to the Altamaha River, one of the largest rivers in Georgia.
