Culture & Recreation

Bryan County offers numerous recreation programs, courts and fields for all types of sports, gymnasiums, swimming pools, playgrounds, public boat ramps and public fishing piers.  There are countless recreational opportunities in the Bryan County area.  We have two rivers bordering northern Bryan County - the Canoochee River on the west and the Ogeechee River on the east - where fishing, boating and canoeing are favorite pastimes.  Avid hunters can take advantage of the many forests surrounding Pembroke. Pembroke and Richmond HIll border the Fort Stewart military installation, which is open for hunting and fishing throughout the year.  Ten minutes away from downtown Pembroke, Bryan County has an 18-hole golf course that includes a clubhouse with a grill, as well as an area for large group meetings.  Richmond Hill is also home to several golf courses, including the recently re-designed Pete Dye course at The Ford Plantation.

Explore the unspoiled beaches of the barrier islands and cruise the Intracoastal Waterway or camp among the giant live oaks and beautiful salt marsh at Fort McAllister State Park, which includes 65 trailer and RV sites, as well as primitive campsites and a Pioneer Campground on the south end of the county.  Activities for everyone abound, from hiking and fishing to the scenic picnic and playground area near the historic fort.  All sites are equipped with water and electrical hookups, grills, and tables.  Two comfort stations provide campers with restrooms, heated showers and washer/dryers.  Dock and boat ramps provide access to local waterways.

Additional opportunities for culture and recreation abound in nearby Savannah with the downtown historic district, beaches and numerous festivals offered year-round.
