Romantic Things to Do in Savannah

Take a Carriage Ride Through the Historic District

 Sightseeing in a horse-drawn carriage is a great way to experience downtown Savannah and if you choose an evening carriage ride, it turns into a truly romantic experience.  The carriages may be a little less crowded in the evening as people head off for dinner and if you're willing to dinner just a bit later, you can set the mood for the entire evening by taking in Savannah rich history before dining by candlelight with a bottle of your favorite red wine.

Romantic Walk Along the Beach

Drive our to Tybee Island late in the afternoon and experience a walk at sunset along the sands of this barrier island that young couples and older partners all find enchanting.  You could start with a visit to the Tybee Pier and then venture north on the sands of Tybee and walk for an hour or more before turning back. Think of the deep connection you can forge while conversing along the shore while the waves and the seagulls provide the perfect background soundtrack.

Enjoy a Picnic in Forsyth Park

Anyone who has seen photographs of Savannah's Forsyth Park with its iconic white marble fountain knows it qualifies as possibly the most beautiful site in our city.  With that in mind, bringing your special someone to the park and surprising them with a picnic for two is a wonderful way to show your spontaneous nature and your romantic side.
