The Coastal Highway In Georgia That Is The Perfect Summer Road Trip

Coastal Georgia is the best place to road trip during the summer months. Not only is there an abundance of things to stop and enjoy, but the views are truly spectacular. What was once one of the busiest roads in Georgia, Coastal Highway 17 has an old fashioned charm that makes this the most epic drive with the windows down and the radio up.

Coastal Highway 17 starts in Charleston, South Carolina and ends near Brunswick, Georgia.
