Outdoor Activities
There are also plenty of outdoor activities to participate in all around Athens to make memories in a safe and socially distanced manner.
- The Athens Farmers Market is open every Saturday from August to October and has some events in November. There is a wide range of growers, farmers, florists, meats, prepared foods, and arts & crafts booths to choose from all around Bishop Park and give you the option to listen to free live music as you walk around. This is a great way to support local, see people, and stay safe all at the same time.
- Most breweries in Athens have outside porches, patios, and sitting areas at their venus that allow for people to try locally sourced alcohol without having COVID-related concerns. The breweries with outdoor seating are Akademia, Creature Comforts, Terrapin Beer, and Southern Brewing Company.
- Athens also has a huge outdoorsy community with parks, trails, a zoo, kayaking, and so much more. All of these activities are available at all times and all you to spend quality time with your student while having a great time in the sunshine.
Regardless of how you choose to visit your student this school year, we hope you make the most of your time with them in their college town by seeing their favorite places (via walking or driving), meeting their friends, and catching up on all the fun times they are having.
