Savannah Georgia in Late Summer

This year I went to Savannah in mid-September. Savannah is one of my favorite cities in the United States, and I have now decided mid to late-September is the most perfect time to go for a number of reasons.

First, the weather is not stifiling hot like in can be in mid-July when the humidity can make the middle of the day unbearable. With the exception of a few light showers, the weather was picture perfect!

Second, kids have returned to school and the only remaining tourists are those with empty nests and plenty of time. There are no crowds milling around the hundreds of attractions Savannah has to offer, so there is no waiting for entry.

Third, it is easier to reserve a room at your favorite bed and breakfast, and the rates are cheaper to boot. You might not get to meet as many new people at the B&B, but sometimes that can be a plus as well. It's a chance to get to know your innkeeper at little better.

Fourth, you can have dinner at any of your favorite restaurants at almost any time. There's no need to make reservations weeks or even months ahead of time, and the food and service is still top notch.

I love Savannah! Now I love Savannah in the late summer!
