Discover the Charm of 9 Southeastern States


Kick Up Your Heels in the Southeast

The nine states that make up the Southeast have so much to see! Some of the top reasons people go to these states are to listen to the music, to trace the Civil Rights Movement, to hit the beaches, to explore charming cities and to get a taste of the South. Each state has its own personality, things to do and see, and people. These nine states are Alabama, Florida, Georgia, Kentucky, Louisiana, Mississippi, North Carolina, South Carolina and Tennessee. Taking a peek at each state will help you decide which state or states you want to visit first.
