In the US state of Georgia, Spanish moss drapes the live oaks, historic squares shade Savannah and peach cobbler ends every meal. This is the Deep South at its most gracious.
From Savannah, you can reach Tybee Island by road, paddle or take a guided boat outing to Little Tybee, or cross to Daufuskie by water taxi. Tybee is the simplest choice for an independent beach day. The other two suit different interests: undeveloped shores on Little Tybee, and a historic island community with beach possibilities […]
Savannah bike hire gives you a way to reach beyond the Historic District without bringing your own bicycle. A short outing through the squares involves frequent stops and some walking with your bike. Choose your outing before choosing a hire period, especially if you want to reach Daffin Park or use an e-bike. In this […]
Savannah pralines are a sweet stop you can fit between meals, or a gift to carry home from the riverfront. River Street Sweets is one familiar maker, but the name describes a local speciality rather than a single shop’s brand. Choose with the pecans, coating and journey home in mind, whether you want one to […]
A seated beer in Savannah can mean a drink near the Historic District, a burger in Starland or pizza at a neighbourhood brewpub. Choose the food arrangement first if this stop needs to double as a meal. Service Brewing and Coastal Empire Beer Co. suit a beer-led visit, while Two Tides Brewing and Hop Atomica […]
Savannah’s museums offer very different ways to spend an afternoon. At the Jepson Center you can browse contemporary art or join your children in hands-on activities, while Owens-Thomas House & Slave Quarters asks you to consider the unequal lives within a historic household. Elsewhere, railway equipment, African ceremonial objects and dark-history collections reward more specific […]
The Hilton Head wording in Savannah/Hilton Head International Airport can make flight-search results confusing, especially if your trip includes both Savannah and the island. Choose by the airport’s full name and location, then consider whether your departure city has a nonstop flight or needs a connection. In this guide Savannah/Hilton Head International Airport Hilton Head […]
A coffee break in Savannah can keep you beside the historic squares or take you into a different part of the city. Gallery Espresso suits a seated pause overlooking Chippewa Square, while The Coffee Fox puts a pour-over stop among downtown shops. Farther south, The Sentient Bean pairs naturally with Forsyth Park, Foxy Loxy Café […]
Choose Urban Deli for a vegan sandwich lunch, or The Sentient Bean for a breakfast burrito beside Forsyth Park. Alexander’s Bistro adds a tofu scramble on a pretzel bun just south of the park, while Hungry Vegan makes a separate outing worthwhile for Southern-style fried oyster mushrooms and vegan mac and cheese. These four Savannah […]
Savannah’s squares connect very different stories: the porches of Jones Street, the lives interpreted at Owens-Thomas House & Slave Quarters, and the former cotton warehouses along the river. Three full sightseeing days leave room for those walks, contrasting art museums and Bonaventure Cemetery, without giving up an afternoon rest or dinner in a different neighbourhood […]
Savannah’s Owens–Thomas House & Slave Quarters gives this weekend its starting point: the lives of enslaved people come before the galleries, squares and riverfront. Allow Friday evening for settling in, then two full days for the city. Saturday ends on River Street, while Sunday moves from Forsyth Park and residential streets to art and dinner […]
Choose April for a walking-led visit to Savannah, or November if you prefer cooler days. Both suit time outdoors in the historic squares and Forsyth Park better than the heat and heavier rainfall of summer. Spring’s main accommodation complication is the St Patrick’s Day celebration, so separate your choice of walking weather from your choice […]
You can get free Wi-Fi in the passenger terminal at Savannah/Hilton Head International Airport or use your own device at Bull Street Library. The airport connection suits an arrival or departure, while the library gives you a place to get online during a visit to town. Neither option requires a café purchase. Choose the connection […]
