Must See is Savannah, Georgia

A list of some of the local hot spots and most popular outings in the city for tourist and locals alike.

 Here is a list of the top 7 things that you must do when you visit Savannah, GA. 

  1. Spend the day at Tybee Island beach.  Sand, surf, and fun you can never do wrong with that.  Some great restaurants to visit include: The Crab Shack, Macawee’s, and Cousin Vinny’s Pizza.
  2. Hit Riverstreet.  This is the ultimate downtown tourist destination, a must see.  The Savannah river is beautiful down there and drinking down here can spill out from the bars to the street. 
  3. Another downtown must visit is City Market.  This is an artsy area filled with art gallery, bars, popular restaurants and shops.
  4.  Visit the famous Lady and Son’s resturant owned by Paula Deen herself.  Pull up to the table and be prepared to eat like a true southerner complete with greens and cornbread.  DELICIOUS!
  5. Catch a Sand Gnats minor league baseball game.  This is fun and affordable entertainment for the whole family.  Friday night home games have free fireworks following the game.
  6. Take a dolphin cruise.  Marine life here is prevalent.  I have seen dolphins in the rivers many times.  I have even seen them at the beach.  Twice I have had the pleasure of seeing whales off the coast.  It is a majestic sight.
  7. Have a glass of ice tea and sit in the shade downtown at Vinny Van Gogo’s.  They have some of the best pizza and atmosphere around.  This is a favorite hangout for locals.
