While the downtown scene in Savannah is certainly worth your stay, it’s far from all the city has to offer. Cool shopping venues, exciting restaurants and memorable fun is to be had all around town. Broaden your horizion with a trip outside of Savannah's Historic District.

01
Bring the Family to Starland Yard

A revolving food truck playground best describes the Starland Yard located in the iconic Starland District.  You'll be introduced to different food trucks every week in this family-friendly location.  You can count on Vittoria Pizzeria, a permanent staple with this area, with renowned chef Kyle Jacovino at the forefront.  His wood-fired Neapolitan pies are a must try.  Stop by and listen to live music, peruse local art, have a drink at the Yard Bar or play some corn hole.  Starland Yard has something for everyone.

02
See a baseball game at Grayson Stadium

Grayson Stadium has been hosting the best in both major and minor league baseball since 1926. The Savannah Bananas, our home team, knock it out of the park each season. If you haven’t seen the Bananas in action yet, you’re missing out! Get your tickets and don your best Banana fan gear - it’s time to play ball!

03
Play in the sand on Tybee Island

Savannah’s beach is arguably the most-visited spot outside the Historic District. Just a short, scenic drive from downtown, Tybee Island is the perfect venue for your oceanside escape this season. People visit the island for so many reasons: the surf, the marine life, the kayaking and watersports opportunities, coastal cuisine, and of course, the beauty.
