Summer kicks off in full swing in the greater Savannah/Low Country area, and June is packed with outdoor fun, cultural festivals, live music, and local flavor.
June is one of the best times to bring the family to vacation in the Lowcountry. With long daylight hours, warm weather, and an endless list of outdoor activities, it’s easy to create lasting memories. Families can stroll along Savannah’s iconic River Street, book a boating or dolphin tour along the Intracoastal Waterway, explore interactive exhibits at the Savannah Children’s Museum, or tee off at top-rated golf courses in Bluffton and Hilton Head. Even though the beloved Forsyth Park fountain will be turned off for the summer of 2025 for scheduled renovations, there’s no shortage of beauty and charm across the region’s historic squares, moss-draped oaks, and waterfront views. Whether you're hunting for seashells on Tybee Island, biking through Jekyll, or enjoying a riverfront dinner in Beaufort, June offers something for every age and interest in the Lowcountry.
**Bonus Tip: If you're a local or coming to visit a local, June is the month that locals can get a Hometown Pass from any of the Historic Tours of America companies for one FREE admission when accompanied by one full fare adult.**
