Things To Do
Georgia Aquarium
The Georgia aquarium is one of the best in the nation for a reason! We had a blast exploring here
Marietta Diner
This local place has something for everyone. They're so good they were even featured on "Diners, Drive-ins and Dives"!
Marietta Square
The Marietta Square is the town center and is filled with good restaurants, an old-fashioned candy shop, and cute boutiques galore! One of our favorite brunch places is The Marietta Local of the edge of the square!
Ponce City Market
This is a flea market style gathering place with the added bonus of having restaurants nearby!
