Top Things to Do in Chattanooga
Enjoy the summer sunshine with a cruise on Southern Belle!
As the school year wraps up and proms and spring sports seasons come to an end, it’s time to start planning out your summer. As you do that, here’s helpful hint– a cruise down the Tennessee River on a Southern Belle Riverboat is an absolute must for your summer bucket list!
Everybody loves summer and we’re no different here in Chattanooga. Along with hitting the local swimming pools, golf courses, fishing holes, ice cream shops and summer movie blockbusters, there are just a few things you HAVE to experience every summer in Chattanooga.
Of course you have to head over to AT&T Field and check out a Chattanooga Lookouts baseball game— is it really summer if you haven’t watched an outdoor baseball game? And speaking of Lookout—there’s no sense spending any time in Chattanooga in the summertime without a nice hike into Lookout Mountain. Lover’s Leap and seeing seven states in Rock City are both just a few miles from downtown Chattanooga. And finally– we’ve saved the best for last—you simply have to take a riverboat cruise down the Tennessee River on a Southern Belle Riverboat!
Float, drink, dine and relax on the water
