What to do in January
- Winter paddling in the Okefenokee
- Wild-horse watching on Cumberland Island
- Cold-clear hikes in the north Georgia mountains
Best-fit rigs: Motorhome · Truck or van · Boat

Thunderstorms and occasional tornadoes occur year-round but peak in spring. Summer brings high humidity and biting insects.
