7 Ways to Enjoy Savannah in the Summertime

Enjoy the sounds of City Market while cooling off in this exciting fountain. You’ll feel like a kid again splashing in this interactive fountain. At night, colorful lights turn the fountain rainbow bright. Get your waterproof camera ready for moments you don’t want to forget!

Walking might make you sweat, but going for a ride will make you forget all about the heat. Catch the breeze while you ride in style with Savannah Slow Ride. Head to the top deck as you cruise along the river with Savannah Riverboat Cruises. On Savannah’s beach – Tybee Island – you can feel the wind on your face as you hop on a private charter with Compass Sailing! How cool is that?

The warm weather is just one excuse why you deserve an ice-cold beverage! Head to one of Savannah’s beer breweries to tour the facilities, sample cold brews, and learn about craft beer. 

Kick back and relax under a shady umbrella at one of the city's many breezy rooftop haunts, all while indulging in refreshing daiquiris and curated cocktails. Talk about living the high life! 

Escape to a basement bar – like The Ordinary Pub – to take a break from the sun. Your rejuvenation will be swift and effortless!

Are you feeling the heat or are you bringing - the sizzle? Indulge in some self-care at one of Savannah's many salons or spas. Gather the girls and get your nails done at Magnolia Spa, lay back and enjoy a rejuvenating facial at Saltgrass Spa & Fitness or let the experts at The Heavenly Spa by Westin release your tension with a massage.

Step into Savannah's air-conditioned sanctuaries of knowledge and culture and let your mind expand as you bask in the refreshing breeze. Beat the heat while simultaneously enriching your intellect and cultivating your taste for the finer things in life. If you love architectural details, explore the Harper Fowlkes House or the Davenport House Museum. The Jepson Center is known for its contemporary art exhibits from around the globe, and the SCAD Museum of Art has the latest works by students in Savannah! 

A hot day is the perfect excuse for a cold, sweet treat! Grab a scoop of Tutti Frutti from Leopold’s Ice Cream, an ice-cold popsicle at Savannah Square Pops or a creamy scoop of gelato at District Gelato or Doki Doki Ice Creamery. 

When the moon rises, it's time to unleash the fun! Savannah's nightlife is the perfect recipe for a sizzling evening. Whether you're craving cocktails with comrades at our legendary pubs, busting a move at a dance club or ghost hunting like a pro, you'll be the epitome of coolness come nightfall.
