The Savannah Amtrak station is an Amtrak station in Savannah, Georgia. Located at 2611 Seaboard Coastline Drive, the station consists of a terminal building on the east side of the north-south tracks, with a platform between the tracks. The terminal offers ticketing, checked baggage, Amtrak Express shipping, and human remains shipping services.

Savannah is served by the trains of Amtrak's Silver Service. It is the southern terminus of the Palmetto route and is along the Silver Star and Silver Meteor routes. North of Savannah, the Palmetto and Silver Meteor diverge from the Silver Star, not coming back together again until Rocky Mount, North Carolina. Of the three routes, the one that is probably most useful for traveling to Savannah is the Palmetto, as the others arrive early in the morning while it does so in the evening, while either the Silver Meteor or the Palmetto is effective for leaving the city, as the Silver Star passes through late at night.

Its Amtrak station code is SAV.
