In any event, this is one of the times that our place truly shines. December, January, February and March usually offer many blue-sky, beautiful days with mild temperatures in the 60’s to 70’s – perfect for getting out-and-about to enjoy the unique features of our region.

Even though we are ocean-bound to the east, there are still numerous north, south and west opportunities to explore, visit and experience – either as day-trips or for overnight weekends. Additionally, there are many nationally and internationally renowned events to attend – from the Amelia Island Concours d’Elegance, to the Daytona 500 and The Players Championship.

My favorite place to share with visiting family and friends is the Georgia Coast. Cumberland Island National Seashore, Jekyll Island State Park’s Millionaire’s Village, St. Simons Island and of course, Historic Savannah are all fabulous destinations. If you want to experience the Coast in a unique and somewhat rustic fashion, try staying at Little St. Simons Island or in the Geechee/Gullah Hog Hammock community on Sapelo Island.
