We live close to Va Beach, which is a huge city that has a patch of sand. Unlike the Outer Banks, Va. Beach, and Key West, Tybee Beach is a vintage treasure. It is just like beaches used to be...sand, fun, and great restaurants. It has just enough shops and many rentals cottages from the 1940's -1970's. There are few... more

During our vacation we did a beach day at Tybee Island and we were certainly glad we did. The weather was perfect and the beach was excellent. My wife and young son had a fantastic time. There are some great local places to enjoy a good meal (Crab Shack) and it is definitely a great place to enjoy a day... more

This a great place for people with small children or for people who just want to relax. It isn't a party beach and thankfully so. My family and I had a wonderful time combing the beach, pier and shops from day to night. The Tybee Lighthouse was also very interesting and has a terrific view. The entire area is very... more

Several reviews talk about how there is little to do on Tybee, but I disagree. It all depends on what you are looking for. If you want a night life, flashy restaurants and bars, and amusement parks, go to Myrtle Beach. Myrtle Beach exists to trap tourists so people who need a vacation can go to Tybee. The island is... more

Some good things about Tybee Island is that is very laid back. Everyone was friendly. Its just a nice place to go if you just want to relax. Some not so good things that we experienced is that the hotels are not that great (small, expensive, chipped paint...etc). The water is kinda brown. There is not much to do on... more

We stayed at the Savannah Beach & Racquet Club, which are prison-colored condos on the north side of the island. They were dingy and old, reminded me of failure. Also, on this side of the island it's river beach not so much ocean. The water is dark gray and dank. Very gross! The island has a whole lotta nothing to... more

Morning sunrises are for not only travelers but for locals as well. As you see here there is much to do in the early morning on the beach on Tybee. As one picture depicts two children getting ready to fish at the crack of dawn while the morning sun slowly cascades over an ocean view. Tybee has its peaceful moments... more

We decided to stay out on Tybee Island during our trip to Savannah, as some of us wanted the beach while others were more into the history of the city. We all really liked the quietness of the island, not like your typical beach town at all. We would recommend it to anyone that is planning a trip to Savannah... more

Tybee was fun relaxing and simple. We didnt have to spend a lot of money to have fun, we visited The Crab Shack, Captian Mikes Dolphin tours, we went fishing and watched the dolphin follow the shrimp boats to the docks. We saw jelly fish, horshoe crabs, baby sharks, and baby sting rays. It was a fun experience we will... more
