Fourth of July is a big deal in Georgia. Have your pick - go watch a real Fourth of July Parade and Festival followed by fireworks in St. Marys, GA - or visit Fort King George in Darien for Cannons Across the Marsh instead. Tybee Island Pier has fireworks - and then there's of course Savannah.

Baywatch? For us who always dreamed about runnning out in the water in slow-motion, this sounds like a great spectator event for the summer.Note quite - but you can watch all the lifeguard action on Folly Beach outside Charleston, South Carolina, during this real life contest in June.

f you want to experience a festival in true Southern Style, how about the traditional Catfish Festival in Kingsland taking place on Labor Day weekend? This festival serves up southern-fried catfish with a side of country music.
