Activity Overview
There is an abundance of happenings in our coastal community with a diverse range of parades and festivals throughout the year. Savannah boasts the third largest St. Patrick’s Day parade in the United States and the largest Earth Day Festival in the southeast. From celebratory to silly, festivals include everything from the Greek Festival in downtown Savannah to the Pirates Fest on Tybee. Speaking of Tybee, if you enjoy the water, you’ll love the Beach Bum parade, which is basically a massive water “fight.” In other words, make sure to bring a super soaker!
Check out our list of the Coastal Empire’s most well-known yearly happenings that can help you find your tribe!
