The Blackbeard Island National Wildlife Refuge is a 5,618 acre (118 km²) National Wildlife Refuge located in McIntosh county in Georgia. The refuge was established to provide a nature and forest preserve for esthetic and conservation purposes.

== History ==
The land which is currently Blackbeard Island originally came from the Navy Department in 1800 in a public auction as a source of live oak timber for ship building. The island was then placed under the jurisdiction of the Bureau of Biological Survey to be maintained as a preserve and breeding ground for native wildlife and migratory birds in 1924. A presidential proclamation in 1940 changed its designation from Blackbeard Island Reservation to Blackbeard Island National Wildlife Refuge.
