When you think of holidays to plan a vacation around, chances are St. Patrick’s Day is not at the top of your list. However, it should be, especially if you’re trying to figure out when to book your getaway with Tybee Beach Vacation Rentals. Our coastal Georgia vacation rentals are the ideal home base for anyone looking to check out all the St. Patrick’s Day fun in Savannah and Tybee Island.

Memorable Parades

Both Tybee Island and Savannah host parades filled with plenty of fun. Dates for the parades can vary each year, so check online for this year’s information. The Tybee Island event is the first parade of the season. It starts at 3 p.m. and travels from Tybee City Hall down Butler Avenue to Tybrisa Street. 

The most anticipated event of the St. Patrick’s Day season here is the annual Savannah parade. The sea of green travels from Gwinnett Street near Forsyth Park to the Historic District. While the parade starts around 10:15 a.m., roads begin to close well before that. To avoid the bottleneck of cars, we recommend utilizing the shuttles. For anyone looking to watch marching bands, floats, and dancers in style, check out the bleacher spots you can reserve.

Other Green Festivities

The fun isn’t limited to the parades listed above. For more information on events, visit the Savannah St. Patrick’s Day Committee website.

  • Head to Forsyth Park to watch the fountain turn green. This popular annual tradition takes place before St. Patrick’s Day.
  • Take part in a special mass at the Cathedral Basilica of St. John the Baptist that honors Irish immigrants who settled in the country, specifically Savannah.
  • Join the parade of Irish families and organizations as they head to the site of the Celtic Cross Monument in Emmet Park for a formal ceremony.

  2. While the water will still be on the cooler side, no trip to Tybee Island is complete without a beach day. Visit South Beach to watch the sunset from Tybee Island Pier and Pavilion. The waters off the coast of Mid Beach are perfect for paddleboarding; just make sure you’re dressed appropriately.
  3. Spend a day in Savannah. Wander River Street, home to charming shops and delicious restaurants. Book your spot on a guided tour, like one from Genteel & Bard, that showcases the sights of the historic district.
  4. Sneak in a bit of learning. An adventure with Tybee Beach Ecology Trips includes activities that teach you about the animals and habitats of the barrier island. Another great way to learn about the aquatic life of the island is by visiting the Tybee Island Marine Science Center.
  5. Spend a day out on the water kayaking. The best way to wander area waterways is on a guided outing with Sea Kayak Georgia or North Island Surf & Kayak. Both offer several excursions that showcase the island’s beautiful ecosystem.
