Fun & Romantic Getaways in Georgia
Our Guide to Romantic Getaways in Georgia, with tips for Couples on Attractions in Georgia, Romantic Bed and Breakfasts, Honeymoon Resorts and more
Mountains, beaches, oak trees and peaches - welcome to Georgia!
History, tradition and a fine climate make a Georgia romantic weekend getaway unforgettable. And there's a great choice of accommodation with southern charm perfect for romance.
Since Atlanta offers many attractions, restaurants and romantic places to stay, we've set aside a seperate page for weekend getaways there, and it's coming soon. In the meantime, let's look at historic Savannah, the isles, and a great daytrip in Northern Georgia.
Getaways to Savannah & The Georgia Coast
Savannah is one of the most romantic places in Georgia. The history and tradition of the south come together in this eclectic city just 18 miles from the Atlantic. It's a great weekend escape from the rat-race...
Soak up the flavor of old Savannah by a horse-drawn carriage ride, or check into a boat cruise on the Savannah river nearby. The Historic district is where you'll find interesting shops and cafes, and romantic Savannah restaurants like the Olde Pink House (23 Abercorn Street, 912-232-4286). You can also reserve a boat cruise on the Savannah River nearby.
For a very romantic bed and breakfast in Savannah, the elegant & comfortable
1895 Inn
is a small Victorian home tucked away in the heart of the historic district. (You'll fall in love with all the luxury amenities, including afternoon wine & hors d’oeurves!)
For a romantic weekend on the Georgia coast, why not try:
- East of Savannah, rustic Tybee Island is an attractive oceanside settlement with a fine wide beach for swimming and relaxing. A climb to the top of the Tybee Island Lighthouse is one of the most romantic things to do in this part of Georgia, and you'll love the views of the islands and ocean.
- Brunswick & The Golden Isles - St. Simons Island is another fine destination. A stroll on the pier is fun, and the old-fashioned trolley ride is one of the finest in the South.
- Cumberland Island National Seashore is one of the more secluded spots in Georgia, and you'll discover stretches of beautiful shoreline here just perfect for long walks, beachcombing and wildlife viewing.
