DIRECTIONS from I-95
1. Take I-95 EXIT #94, State Highway 204, Abercorn Street. At the light at the end of the exit ramp go East on Abercorn Street, Route 204 (turn left if coming from the North, right if coming from the South).

2. Stay on 204-East a considerable distance.
- You will pass Highway 17 and King George's Highway and the Veterans Parkway.
- Then you will cross the bridge over the Forest River.
- At this point you will approach the Savannah Mall and various stores.
- Stay in the right lane.

3. Indicated below are various roads you can use to get from Abercorn to White Bluff Road. Choose one or the other you wish to watch for and use. You will make a right turn on to that road.

- Apache is the second light over the bridge crossing the Forest River. On the right is Kroger and the Savannah Mall on the left. Turn right and at the first fork go left onto Roger Warlick which winds around behind Armstrong State University. At the next “large” street turn left onto Windsor Road. Follow this up to White Bluff Road where you will turn right.

- Largo comes after you pass St. Joseph's Hospital on the left and a small shopping center on the right. After turning right you go down to the second intersection which is Windsor Road. Since both streets are a divided highway go beyond the first half of the middle median and then turn left. This takes you now to White Bluff Road where you will turn right.

- Holland is the street immediately on your right after passing the street light by Home Depot and Lowes which are on the left, LoCost Pharmacy on the right and the Toyota used car lot on the right. As Abercorn takes a swing to the left the other street almost going straight but to the right is Holland. This is direct and a short distance to White Bluff Road. At White Bluff Road there is a light and you turn right.

- Wilshire is the next street light after passing on the left Home Depot and Lowes stores. You turn right at the light onto Wilshire. You come very quickly to White Bluff Road. You make a right turn here.

- Tibet Avenue is a short distance beyond Wilshire. There is a street light and the Sun Trust Company Bank on the far right corner. You turn right onto Tibet and quickly come to another light which is White Bluff Road. You turn right here also.

4. Upon reaching White Bluff Road you are five to ten minutes from the Monastery. White Bluff Road is a rather long, winding drive. White Bluff becomes Coffee Bluff Road. At the end of Coffee Bluff is the Coffee Bluff Marina. To your right is West Back Street.

At Back Street, make a right turn on to West Back ... three doors down, or four driveways, on your left is the Carmelite Monastery. Turn into our driveway ... and you have made it!

Prayers for a safe trip!
