South Georgia – just a click away
TEXT BY JOEY HANE • LISTINGS COMPILED BY PAMELA A. KEENE
W
hether you’re a food
nut, history buff, nature
lover or festival junkie, Georgia’s
Southern travel regions have
something for you.
In the Classic South, you
may fi nd yourself traveling back
in time as you visit the Boyhood
Home of President Woodrow
Wilson, or the Augusta Museum
of History’s James Brown exhibit
featuring Augusta’s own Godfather
of Soul. If you get your timing right,
you could also catch the Masters
tournament at the world-renowned
Augusta National Golf Club, or play
a round of 18 yourself.
Head over to the Georgia Coast
where you can spend the day in
“Georgia’s First City,” Savannah.
Experience Bonaventure Cemetery,
made famous by the book “Midnight
in the Garden of Good and Evil,”
or soak up the sun on the beautiful
beaches of Georgia’s coastal islands.
If food is your fi xation, check
out the Vidalia Onion Festival in
the Magnolia Midlands. This annual
event includes an air show, carnival
and Miss Vidalia Onion Pageant.
In Plantation Trace, visit Al-
bany’s Flint RiverQuarium, which
features interactive exhibits of more
than 100 species of aquatic life.
The Rock Ranch in the Presi-
dential Pathways region is a mustsee.
Owned by Truett Cathy, this
family-friendly cattle ranch offers
hayrides, camping and special
events throughout the year.
With more than 80 things to see
and do, this compilation of South
Georgia’s best attractions is sure to
have something for everyone.
