Augusta is famous for a little golf tournament called the Master's...have you heard of it? Whether you are playing at the iconic Augusta National Golf Club or one of the other beautiful courses, you'll soon understand what all the hype is about.

Take a boat tour along the Augusta Canal - a designated National Heritage Area - or for a more active option, you can kayak or fish.

While it's a small city, Augusta is home to a thriving local arts scene and hosts many festivals and other events throughout the year. Be sure to check a local calendar before you go.
