The fall season is just around the corner and with it comes some of our favorite holidays, such as Thanksgiving. November is a great time of the year to check out Savannah, Georgia with the summer tourists gone and endless fall activities to enjoy. Enjoy an extended Savannah vacation getaway over the Thanksgiving holiday week. Here is how you can keep your family entertained over Thanksgiving in Savannah:
Find a New Thanksgiving Dinner Tradition
If your family is in the mood to change up the Thanksgiving holiday, try out one of the incredible restaurants found in town open on the holiday. Several restaurants that are open on the holiday and feature delicious food include Belford's Savannah Seafood and Steaks, Rocks on the River, and the Pirate's House. Moon River Brewing Company is also usually open so the adults can grab a beer before heading out for holiday shopping. For something truly unique, book a Thanksgiving Day Dinner Cruise with Savannah Riverboat Cruises for an exciting twist on Thanksgiving Dinner.
Explore the City
November is a great time to get out of the house and explore the historic city of Savannah. The summer temperatures are gone, so make sure to bring your favorite light jacket during your stroll. The architecture of historic River Street will amaze you, along with its rich history. Or check out Forsyth Park for a fun game of football among family members. For those looking to enjoy the coast, Tybee Island is just a short drive away with tours of the famous lighthouse found on the island.
Boat Parade of Lights
Before you head back home, check out the Boat Parade of Lights, an annual attraction that finds a parade of lighted boats in the water with live music and a tree lighting ceremony to start the Christmas season. Fireworks will set off in the sky above for an incredible evening of fun and excitement for the whole family. This year's event will take place on November 24th with a $10 donation requested per person to attend.
