Savannah In May

May in Savannah tends to be very warm and is typically sunny, with the weather transitioning between the warm but changeable days of spring and the very hot and humid conditions of summer. This is generally a very good time to visit, as long as you don’t mind the heat; average high temperatures during this month often reach the mid-80s, with many days being hotter still.

Savannah events in May include the Savannah Scottish Games, the Doggie Carnival in Forsyth Park and Savannah Comic Con. The SCAD Sand Arts Festival is a May highlight over in nearby Tybee Island.

Savannah’s weekly farmers market runs year round, and there are usually also several shows, concerts and other performances to enjoy during May, along with special events at local attractions, races, and other goings on.

There is no shortage of other things to do in Savannah in May, from sightseeing in the beautiful Historic District, historic house tours and museums, food tours, Black history tours, boat tours of the Savannah River, enchanting Bonaventure Cemetery, nearby nature sites, kayak excursions, and several beaches within a short drive of the city

Memorial Day weekend gets very busy in Savannah and neighboring Tybee Island, and it is advisable to make reservations in advance for visits around this time. Trips to the beach, in particular, are enormously popular over the holiday weekend, so set out as early as possible to beat the traffic.
