Thunderbolt

Drive out of Savannah’s downtown and you’ll find one-of-a-kind marsh views and stunning sunset vistas. Thunderbolt, bordering on Savannah’s east side and the Wilmington River, is a lush residential community that’s home to historic Bonaventure Cemetery and delicious seafood spots like Tubby’s Tank House. Head east on U.S. 80 and discover Wilmington Island, a cozy neighborhood on the Wilmington River. Historic Fort Pulaski and Oatland Island Wildlife Center are nearby.
