Savannah National Wildlife Refuge, National Wildlife Refuge in Georgia and South Carolina, United States.
The refuge spans 30,000 acres of tidal freshwater marsh and bottomland hardwood forest along the Savannah River, supporting diverse wildlife populations.
Established in 1927, this refuge functions as a protected sanctuary for migratory birds, particularly waterfowl seeking winter shelter along the Atlantic Flyway.
The refuge educates visitors about the interconnected ecosystems and wildlife conservation through interpretive programs at the visitor center and nature trails.
Visitors can access the 4.5-mile Laurel Hill Wildlife Drive daily from sunrise to sunset, with opportunities for hiking, photography, fishing, and hunting.
The refuge contains a network of former rice field impoundments that now serve as managed wetland units for waterfowl and wading birds.
