Hit the Road for St. Patrick’s Day!

St. Patrick’s Day RV Destinations

With St. Patrick’s Day just around the corner, it’s time to plan your trip and load up your RV. We’ve rounded up a list of places where you can party like a true-blue Irish, and we’ve also thrown in an unlikely suspect as well, in case you just want a relaxing vacation away from the crowd.

1. Chicago, Illinois

Celebrating its 60th anniversary this year, Chicago’s St. Patrick’s Day Parade promises to cover the whole nine yards. Grab a good view on the East side of Michigan Avenue Bridge for a modern day miracle, the Dyeing of the River. Watch the Chicago River turn orange, before transforming into a perfect shade of emerald green, as Chicago attempts to be the “GREENest City in the World on St. Patrick’s Day.”

2. Boston, Massachusetts

Nobody celebrates St Patrick’s Day like the Bostonians, where their famous parade draws close to a million spectators. Be sure to arrive dressed in green and bring a ginormous appetite, because you’ll need it as you eat and drink your way through the city’s beloved Irish pubs, like Hennessy’s and The Harp. Afterwards, take a break from the pub crawl for a walk down the Irish Heritage Trail.

3. Savannah, Georgia

If you prefer RVing somewhere warm, then say hello to this southern belle, where a few
campgrounds are located conveniently near the popular St. Patrick’s Day Parade and the Greening of the Fountain at Forsyth Park in the Historic District. Bring your family to the Tara Irish Festival for music, food, crafts and a magic show. Later you can stop by one of the many eateries for green grits or green beer.

4. Newport Beach, California

Bike or stroll down miles of pristine coastline that’s bustling with restaurants and cafes. Hit the waves, go kayaking, and maybe even learn how to jetpack–just be sure to save a couple of hours for whale and dolphin watching on Newport Bay.

5. Dublin, Ohio

Before the grand parade begins, fuel up at Sells Middle School for a St. Patrick’s All-You-Can-Eat Pancake (plus sausage) Breakfast, organized by the Dublin Lions Club. Then swing by the Columbus Zoo and Aquarium and get free admission just for wearing green.
