Why Spring Is the Perfect Time To Move to Savannah

Editor’s Note (Updated 2025): Spring in Savannah offers some of the most beautiful weather and scenery of the year — making it an ideal season for a fresh start. Whether you’re relocating for work, lifestyle, or simply to enjoy Coastal Georgia’s charm, Ernest Homes is here to help you feel right at home.

It’s always a great time to move to Savannah, but there’s something especially magical about spring. Flowers are blooming, humidity is low, and mild temperatures make it the perfect season to explore your new surroundings and settle in comfortably.

If you’re considering making the move, here’s why spring may be the best time to begin your new chapter in Savannah.

Your Savannah Move-In Will Be Less Sweaty

Let’s be honest — summers in the South are beautiful but warm. Moving boxes in July? Not ideal. Spring, however, offers comfortable weather that makes the whole process easier.

During spring, Savannah temperatures typically range from the upper 50s to mid-70s. You’ll enjoy breezy days, low humidity, and plenty of daylight thanks to the time change — perfect conditions for unpacking, settling in, and getting acclimated to your new home.

You Can Explore Your New Home and City

Once you’re settled, it’s time to enjoy everything Savannah has to offer. Spring brings vibrant festivals, outdoor activities, and ideal weather for exploring your new community.

Start by strolling through Savannah City Market for incredible food, artisan shops, and local entertainment. Treat yourself to shrimp and grits, browse boutiques, or grab a fresh-baked treat to enjoy on your walk home.

If you’re craving the coast, head to Tybee Island to surf, fish, or relax on the beach. The laid-back atmosphere and ocean breezes make it a favorite local escape.

Prefer events and activities? Savannah’s spring calendar is packed. Explore popular happenings like garden tours, races, food festivals, and cultural events. No matter your interests, there’s something for everyone.

Your New Neighborhood Is at Peak Beauty

Spring isn’t just beautiful in downtown Savannah — it transforms our residential communities too. If you’re moving into an Ernest home in one of our picturesque neighborhoods, you’ll see why residents love this season.

Near the Wexford community, boaters enjoy scenic days on the water launching from Fort McAllister Marina. Golfers unfurl their clubs at Sterling Links. And families watch their kids make new friends at the neighborhood playground within the Bryan County School District.

In Dunham Marsh, springtime brings walks around the 2.5-acre pond, enjoying the community green space, and connecting with neighbors outdoors.

Savannah’s natural beauty shines brightest in spring — and moving during this season allows you to fully appreciate it from day one.
