REASON #07: GET OUT IN THE GREAT OUTDOORS

Conferences are often both exhilarating and exhausting. After a weekend of professional education and networking, there's no better way to blow off some steam than relaxing in the great outdoors. Read on for the scoop on golfing and fishing opportunities in Savannah:

The best spot for your golfing adventure lies across the Savannah River. Take a short ferry ride to The Club at Savannah Harbor to enjoy an award-winning 18-hole PGA Championship course. Play a round with friends or work on your game by signing up for personalized training session with an experienced golf instructor.

If you'd rather be on the water, gather up some friends and book a private charter boat to go deep sea fishing for Grouper, Snapper, and more. Located about 15 minutes from downtown Savannah, Reel 'Em N Deep Sea Fishing excursions can last from four to 14 hours, so be sure to pack a lunch and some sunscreen if you're interested.

REASON #10: ENCOUNTER THE GHOSTS IN GEORGIA'S OLDEST CITY

In the 275+ years since British colonists arrived on the shores of the Savannah River, Savannah has grown into an epicenter of art, agriculture, and genteel Southern hospitality. Everywhere you go, you can sense the ghosts of the past just around the corner.

During your visit, take a stroll around the 22 squares in America's first planned city to enjoy the feeling of the cobblestones beneath your feet, the branches of the live oak trees stretching overhead, and the historic structures surrounding you, including the famous Forsyth Park Fountain. Continue to immerse yourself in the unique culture of the city through a History and Ghost Tour or a scenic Riverboat Cruise.

You can also venture outside of the city to learn about Savannah's role in United States' military history. If you're interested in the Civil War, visit Fort Pulaski National Monument . If you prefer World War II, go to the Museum of the Mighty Eighth , which honors the brave members of the Mighty Eighth Air Force.
