When to Go

The average high and low temperatures at coastal Savannah and central Atlanta show Low Country coastal areas to be warmer year-round than those farther inland. Winter temperatures seldom drop below freezing anywhere in the state. Spring and fall are the longest seasons, and the wettest months are December to April.

Spring is a spectacular time to visit. Many areas become a riot of color, as the azaleas, dogwoods, and camellias are bursting into bloom.
