Georgia's Coastal Plains region includes about 60% of the state. Long ago this area was part of the Atlantic Ocean and
completely covered by water. A unique wetland feature of the Southeastern Coastal Plain is the Carolina Bay. Carolina Bays
are oval shaped wetlands found from Maryland south to Georgia. Some support permanent lakes while others experience
