The North River is a tidal river channel, approximately 18 miles (29 km) long,[2] in coastal Georgia, the United States. It is a longer and narrower alternative channel to the tidal Darien River and ultimately is part of the Altamaha River system in the marshes between Darien, Georgia and the Atlantic Ocean.
