Savannah, Georgia - Savannah River Ship Traffic HD (2017)
The Port of Savannah is a major U. S. seaport located at Savannah, Georgia. Its facilities for oceangoing vessels line both sides of the Savannah River approximately 18 miles (29 km) from the Atlantic Ocean. Operated by the Georgia Ports Authority (GPA), the Port of Savannah competes primarily with the Port of Charleston in Charleston, South Carolina to the northeast, and the Port of Jacksonville in Jacksonville, Florida to the south. The GPA operates one other Atlantic seaport in Georgia, the Port of Brunswick, located at Brunswick, Georgia. There are three interior ports linked to the Gulf of Mexico, Port Bainbridge and Port Columbus, and one linked to the Port of Savannah by rail in Cordele, Georgia.
Between 2000 and 2005 alone, the Port of Savannah was the fastest-growing seaport in the United States, with a compounded annual growth rate of 16.5 percent (the national average is 9.7 percent). On July 30, 2007, the GPA announced that the Port of Savannah had a record year in fiscal 2007, becoming the fourth-busiest and fastest-growing container terminal in the U.S. The GPA handled more than 2.3 million twenty-foot equivalent units (TEU) of container traffic during fiscal 2007– a 14.5 percent increase and a new record for containers handled at the Port of Savannah. In the past five years, the port's container traffic has jumped 55 percent from 1.5 million TEU handled in fiscal 2003 to 2.3 million TEU in fiscal 2007. By 2014, container traffic was up to 3 million TEU.
In response to the growth in traffic at both Savannah and the Port of Charleston, the Jasper Ocean Terminal, to be the largest port in the country when it is completed, is planned to be built upriver on the Savannah River by the mid 2020s.
Savannah is the oldest city in the U.S. state of Georgia and is the county seat of Chatham County. Established in 1733 on the Savannah River, the city of Savannah became the British colonial capital of the Province of Georgia and later the first state capital of Georgia. A strategic port city in the American Revolution and during the American Civil War, Savannah is today an industrial center and an important Atlantic seaport. It is Georgia's fifth-largest city and third-largest metropolitan area.
Each year Savannah attracts millions of visitors to its cobblestone streets, parks, and notable historic buildings: the birthplace of Juliette Gordon Low (founder of the Girl Scouts of the USA), the Georgia Historical Society (the oldest continually operating historical society in the South), the Telfair Academy of Arts and Sciences (one of the South's first public museums), the First African Baptist Church (one of the oldest African-American Baptist congregations in the United States), Temple Mickve Israel (the third oldest synagogue in America), and the Central of Georgia Railway roundhouse complex (the oldest standing antebellum rail facility in America).
Savannah's downtown area, which includes the Savannah Historic District, the Savannah Victorian Historic District, and 22 parklike squares, is one of the largest National Historic Landmark Districts in the United States (designated by the U.S. government in 1966). Downtown Savannah largely retains the original town plan prescribed by founder James Oglethorpe (a design now known as the Oglethorpe Plan). Savannah was the host city for the sailing competitions during the 1996 Summer Olympics held in Atlanta.
Whitemarsh Preserve, near Savannah, GA
While on vacation in Beaufort, SC I decided to make the drive down to Whitemarsh island, GA to check out this trail. Just a short drive from downtown Savannah, this trail is well marked and just shy of 5 miles in length. The trail is sandy and very flat with the exception of a few man-made wooden features. I made the mistake of waiting until midday and battling the heat during my ride. Needless to say, I wasn’t on my “A” game this day. Lol. Overall this is a great trail to ride if you are in the area and need to stretch your legs.

Tour down River Street and the extended River Walk. Short ride through an undeveloped sub division. Zoomed over to Forsyth Park. Hustled our way over to Bonaventure Cemetery only to find it was closed and rode back into the heart of Savannah before my camera ran out of space.

A Walk Down River Street in Savannah GA - An Aerial View
Please Note...Shot in 2013 when drones were still hand built. So this video was done in the early days of the use of drones and the tech available at that time. When you stop in Savannah. GA, you just have to visit River Street. It is old time buildings with modern shops in them and lots of great food. At one end is a small park with items of interest. One is the Waving Girl who greets the ships as they come and go. We thought it would be a good place to start and end. The other was of the olympic torch that burned during the 1996 summer olympics yachting events along the river.
We also had the pleasure of being able to see the Hyperion, a $30 Million, private sailing yacht. With a mast that is 195 feet tall, it is quite the site and being able to see it from the air really puts it into perspective.
Enjoy the buildings and the area view from the old steel arch foot bridge to the World War II Globe memorial. We even had a police car pass under the quadcoptor. ;)

After work on Thursday July the 3rd, my girlfriend and I set off from Greenville, SC for Savannah, Georgia to celebrate our independence day. After crossing the Talmadge Memorial Bridge over the Savannah River, and in through the historic city with hanging spanish moss trees, we finally reached our quiet and cozy guesthouse I found through AirBnB. We went for a nice southern meal dinner on the riverfront watching a large cargo ship passby and enjoying the night scene along the river. Little did we know, you can grab a beer and walk around the streets drinking without any legal issue. :) We bar hopped the whole night until we got tired to rest for the next day.
Bright and early, we grabbed our bikes from the guesthouse and explored the whole city. We rode through Forsyth Park and most of the city squares that lie every 2 blocks, the riverfront once again, then back to our place in time to avoid the hot sun. Early afternoon, we took a drive out to the infamous Wormsloe Plantation for a surreal first hand look at the cascading horizon of trees, and the colonial remains that still exist there. From there we decided to take a quick dip in the Atlantic at Tybee Island, grab a nice seafood lunch en route, and returned to the riverfront in time for the Forth of July fireworks. We finally ended the short stay right with some good drinks, music, and a nightlife celebration for an amazing stay in this awesome city. I will return Savannah. :)
