NGC 253 (Sculptor Galaxy) is the obious one and easy to find too! If you have reasonable dark skies it i easy to get in your finder or in binos.
THere are several galaxies near there, most obviously NHC 247, NGC 300 and NGC 55. The globular NGC 288 is also very near 253. A little later in the night you can try NGCs 1097, 1291, 1316, 1365 and 1399 around the Eridanus Fornax border. NGC 1313 in Reticulum is also arounf but it is low SB so may be hard with an 8".
Oh and don't miss the Grus quartet! Easy to find!
