Nestled along the banks of the Savannah
River, Augusta is the hub of the 18-county
Central Savannah River Area (CSRA). As the
second largest and oldest city in Georgia,
Augusta is a city with pride in its past and a
well-founded faith in its future.
When planning a visit to Augusta, you'll want
to come early and stay late. Take time to
discover the historic charm of the classic
South with its tree-lined streets and majestic
antebellum mansions. There are dozens of
shops and restaurants, cultural attractions
and entertainment offerings in Augusta's
metropolitan community.
History and Mother Nature have both blessed
Augusta. Long known as the South's "Garden
City," Augusta bursts into spectacular bloom
each spring to welcome the greatest names
in golf at the famed Masters Tournament.
Year round, Augusta is the place to be for
recreation. We hope you will make the most
of our many parks and recreational facilities
for an afternoon of golf, tennis, fishing,
boating, or just enjoying the great outdoors.
