Jasper Springs

## Overview Jasper Springs is a public drinking spring located in the Savannah, Georgia area within Chatham County. Situated near Sonny Perdue Drive in Savannah (GPS: 32.104752, -81.17475), this spring sits in the heart of Georgia's coastal lowcountry — a region shaped by the underlying Floridan Aquifer system, one of the most productive aquifer systems in the world. The Floridan Aquifer extends beneath much of the southeastern United States and is the source of many natural springs throughout Georgia and Florida, feeding groundwater through layers of limestone and other porous rock. Savannah and the surrounding Chatham County area have a long history of reliance on natural water sources, dating back to the city's founding in 1733 by James Oglethorpe. While detailed historical records specific to Jasper Springs are limited, the region's springs have served as important freshwater resources for centuries — first for indigenous peoples and later for colonial settlers. This spring has not yet been extensively reviewed by visitors, so firsthand reports on water flow, taste, and overall condition are still limited.

The area around Savannah is characterized by flat terrain, live oaks draped in Spanish moss, and sandy soils — typical of the Georgia coastal plain. Because visitor reports for this spring are currently limited, conditions such as water flow rate, clarity, temperature, and surrounding infrastructure (spouts, basins, paths) have not been well documented. The spring's proximity to an urban area along Sonny Perdue Drive suggests it may be relatively accessible by car. Visitors exploring the Savannah area will find plenty of nearby attractions, including the Savannah National Wildlife Refuge and the historic Savannah riverfront, making Jasper Springs a potential stop on a broader day trip through the region.
