Kilts in Savannah won't get a second glance from many...especially in the Downtown/Historic District areas. Southside is very kilt friendly as well, parts of the Eastside you might get some insults around SSU.This site http://savannahvisit.comhas all you will need to find the attractions.
Old Fort Jackson has the Games the first weekend of May... a little early for the trip... 1 Fort Jackson Road,
Ft. Pulaski National Monument is a must for Civil War buffs, and just general history. This is the fort where rifled cannon was truly proven as an effective weapon of war.(Go down Victory Drive out towards Tybee... just before Tybee you will see it on the left.)
Museum lists:
The Mighty Eighth Air Force Museum, for the WWII buff. 175 Bourne Avenue, Pooler, GA 31322, dedicated to the 8th Air Force, the unit with the highest casualty rate of any American force in WWII and 17 Medals of Honor, 220 Distinguished Service Crosses, 850 Silver Stars, 7,000 Purple Hearts 46,000 Air Medals.
The Telfair Museum of Art, 121 Barnard Street Home of "The Black Prince at Crecy" by Julian Russell Story 1888
Ships of the Sea, an amazing collection of ship models. 41 Martin Luther King Jr. Boulevard
The Roundhouse Railroad Museum, a Antebellum rail yard, 601 W. Harris Street
Savannah History Museum, pretty much any history period from 1733 to present. 303 Martin Luther King, Jr. Blvd
The two cemeteries in town to visit if you like grave stone rubbings or just the beauty of them are Colonial Park Cemetery in downtown and Bonaventure Cemetery on the eastern side of town (330 Bonaventure Road
Thunderbolt) (Johnny Mercer's grave is a beautiful bench overlooking the Wilmington River, sadly some tourists have not been so respectful of the cemetery after the book Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil even to the point the famous Bird Girl grave statuary has been moved to the Telfair.)
Of course, you have to visit Molly's http://www.macphersonspub.com/Main/Home.aspx for dinner, which is trio of Scottish Pubs, at which the male staff members wear kilts.

But, what's wrong with all the staff members wearing kilts, a la "Tilted Kilt"?
I changed my signature. The old one was too ridiculous.
