Welcome to the City of Port Wentworth, Georgia! Known as “Savannah’s Front Porch©,” Port Wentworth’s growth is due largely to our proximity to and relationship with “big sister” Savannah, Georgia and Interstates 95 and 16, all of which annually bring thousands of new residents and visitors to our doorstep.
Port Wentworth is just minutes from a myriad of conveniences, services and attractions – Savannah/Hilton Head International Airport, the Atlantic Ocean and Tybee Island beaches, and historic downtown Savannah. Our high quality of life and low cost of living attract large companies such as International Paper, Dynacraft, Gulfstream, Georgia Power and many others.
The location of former rice plantations and African-American praise houses here has given us the name “Gateway to Georgia History.” And, since 1971, we have been known as the “Stand Up for America” city for our annual celebration honoring America’s service men and women, past and present.
At the end of the day, our hotels and restaurants are affordable and convenient alternatives to Savannah’s hotel offerings, earning us the nickname “Savannah’s Affordable North Side”!
