11. Tybee Island

The classic southern beach town of Tybee Island is situated about 30 minutes from the Savannah Historic District. This is undoubtedly one reason why it is one of the state’s most popular beautiful beaches. Once you get enough fun in the sun though, there are other things to do here too. Go sea kayaking or take a dolphin tour. Visit the Tybee Lighthouse & Museum and climb 178 steps to take in the stunning, sweeping views of the isle and even the surrounding locale.

 

12. Chattahoochee River National Recreation Area

Outdoor enthusiasts can go hiking at the Chattahoochee River National Recreation Area, or CRNRA, all year. This 48-mile expanse along the famed Chattahoochee River is fairly full of noteworthy hiking trails. Indeed, this recreational area is separated into 10 individual sections of trails.  

In total there are almost 66 miles of hiking trails here. They are largely wooded, dirt trails located near the river ranging in difficulty between easy to moderate. They are all well marked by trail markers and maps are available. A few of the trails are even open to mountain bikers.

One of the most popular hiking trails here is the East Palisades Trail due in large part to the bamboo forest there. Hikers into history prefer the Sope Creek hike which features some Civil War ruins that people can actually climb around on if they so choose.
