Enjoy a riverfront stroll under the shade of magnificent live oaks along Historic River Street. Located in the heart of Savannah’s historic district, the street features an alluring mix of 19th-century architecture, picturesque plazas, and trendy boutiques and eateries, all lining the beautiful Savannah River. Peruse the fine art galleries and antique shops housed inside restored cotton warehouses before retiring for a riverside meal at a local bistro. See the city from the water by catching a river cruise in the harbor. If you have a sweet tooth, stop by the well-known River Street Sweets to try the world-famous pralines or fresh saltwater taffy.

We loved walking down River Street. There are many restaurants and shops, things to see, great for people watching and also seeing the huge container ships coming in to dock.

Love the atmosphere! River front dining, shopping, and relaxing. Not a big city but big enough to have plenty of fun and there is more than enough to keep your day exciting. Take a boat ride and enjoy the Savannah River. All I can say is get here as soon as you can and stay a few days. You may not want to leave.

One of my favorite places of all times! It's neat to watch the huge cargo ships go by along the Savannah River.. Or grab a tasty treat from the local candy shop nearby.. I rather enjoyed it, just a fun place period!
