Historic District Restaurants & Pubs: For those of you who like a break from cooking when you're away, there are numerous restaurant choices within easy walking distance of Broughton Street. From the restaurants serving local shrimp, oysters and crab on River Street, through breweries, pubs and trendy Martini and jazz bars, to upscale restaurants in the heart of the Historic District serving the finest local organic produce, you will have plenty of choices. On the neighbouring islands you will find casual seafood restaurants where you can wash down local seafood with a glass of wine or a beer while enjoying the sunset over the beautiful low country marshland. Some of Savannah's restaurants, like Elizabeth's on 37th, are ranked among the finest in the entire South. And others, like Mrs. Wilkes' Dining Room, are places to go for real Southern fare -- from collard greens and fried okra to fried chicken, corn bread, and hot biscuits.

Colonial Coast Birding Trail: Savannah is an ideal base for visiting the 18 birding sites along the coast that make up this trail. There is a wide variety of habitats along the trail. Shorelines, salt marshes, old rice fields, woodlands, tidal rivers, freshwater wetlands and other habitats host their own fascinating bird communities. Many sites offer visitors the opportunity to watch birds and visit 18th and 19th century historic places. Other sites are located on lands and waters that were once part of early plantations dedicated to growing rice, indigo and cotton. So whether you want to see a bald eagle soaring over a coastal river, an endangered wood stork feeding its gawky young, sanderlings chasing the waves on a sandy beach, or a great egret standing motionless in a placid pond, the Colonial Coast Birding Trail has something for you. Spend some time along the Colonial Coast Birding Trail and learn why the Creek Indians called the Georgia coast The Enchanted Land.
