Known as Savannah’s Front Porch, Port Wentworth is the best place to stay, play, eat and shop near Savannah, Georgia.

Mike Simpson and Will Rich have made it their mission to paddle more than 2,000 miles along the East Coast on stand-up paddleboards. Their trek began on March 1 in Key West, Fla., and will come to completion in Portland, Maine. But their journey isn’t simply about the sport. They are spreading awareness and raising money for the Wounded Warrior Project and SUP Clean-Up. South talked with Mike and Will to hear about their adventures so far.

On the off chance that it’s cloudy out (unlikely but possible) or you’re just not up for the beach (the sand can get a little too hot), we recommend a shopping trip to a few local shops. Make time to peruse these stores so you can find keepsakes, fun gifts, or a little present for yourself.

Whatever you decide to do for your beach vacation, weather it’s falling asleep on the sand or taking a ride over the ocean in a parasail, you’ll want to have a nice, comfortable place to crash in at the end of the day. There are plenty of places to stay on the Island, but these are our recommendations for a perfect night’s sleep.

In Savannah, there’s never a shortage of places to go or things to see. But here at South we believe the Lowcountry is full of unexpected adventure and that you should have a chance to experience it.

And we couldn’t think of a more appropriate way to kick off 60 Days of Adventure that at the beach!
