My wife and I found an unexpected treasure, Tybee Island! Tybee Island was an old pirate haunt where we rented a condo for our visit. There is too much history for me to go into now. Tybee is a small community barely three miles end to end. It is loaded with restaurants and bars. The true beauty is in its charm. The homes are beautiful and the beaches are fantastic. There is fishing, boating and many other nature related things to do. There is very little, if any, crime on Tybee Island. There is always activity around town. The place is just beautiful and only a short drive to Savannah. Although the homes are very expensive, I was able to sniff out a good deal on a beachfront condo that just went on the market. One place you must visit is the Crab Shack. It’s a cozy little restaurant that seats just 700 people. You may still have to wait for your turn during the busy season. We love Tybee Island! You will too.
My wife and I honeymooned on Tybee Island, and we loved it there. We planned to stay in Savannah, but due to poor planning and lack of sleep(drove all night from KY) we couldn't make heads or tails of the streets there. We looked at the map and saw Tybee and decided to check it out. It was exactly as you say in the video, laid back and relaxed. We ended up only staying 1 night, but I wish we had spent longer. We plan on returning in the future.
Love going to Tybee my husband and I go every year he loves the fishing the island is very friendly good food and drinks I go for the relaxation enjoy myself every time I go
I'm in Savavnnah now.It's my first visit and love,love it.It's so quiet,quaint and relaxing.I love Paula Deens and Uncle Bubba's restaurant!If you have 'nt visited here,then you really need to!I'll start comomg here every year.
I miss Tybee Island. I live in San Francisco now but I have fond memories of going there as a kid in the 60's and 70's. I mostly remember the malted milk shakes at The Sugar Shack.
the first ttime i came was last year and it was AMAZING!!!!!!! i am going to go again in a few weeks and i love how where i stay i can just walk every where
Planning to come to Savannah for a whole week (and spend a day in Charleston). Also plan to spend a day at Tybee in time for the Labor Day Fireworks scheduled for September 6 2015. Any tips on where to see the fireworks without the huge crowd? Since I have never been to Tybee...how crowded does it get?
PungiFungi I've never been there for Labor Day, but I would imagine it would be pretty crowded. I'd ask the locals - perhaps the main beach would be a good place.
RobinBenzle , thanks for the response. Tybee's website claims you can see the fireworks from any point on the island (they must shoot'em HIGH) and I wonder if that is true....
Shannon...(and others)...I'm bringing my family down there next July (2013) for a beach vacation. We've previously done the outer banks of NC and since my son in law used to be based at Fort Stewart, he suggested Tybee. Looking at several sites for beach house rentals....any suggestons? We're looking for 4 bedrooms, close to beach, pool...
@drivinailsinmycoffin That casual restaurant featured in the video had really good fish sandwiches - the beach is gorgeous - and a trip into Savannah would be great, too.
Hi my husband and I live in the mts of Asheville nc , we have never been to Tybee but saw all the videos and in Sept would like to go just for a weekend the two of us could anyone at Tybee recommend a place on the beach we could stay that is not too expensive . Thanks vic
Вернулись оттуда только вчера.Ехали до NJ с 5 утра до 11 ночи (с Делавера переправлялись на роскошном пароме).//Купаться нам было гораздо приятнее,чем в Сев.Каролине.Вода оч.теплая,менее соленая из-за обилия рек поблизости.Наш шикарный восьмикомнатный дом на берегу был очень удобен.Хозяин сдал его впервые и оставил все,начиная от шампуней и кончая разными приправами.Поразили пальмы тропических размеров.И удивили грубые,бедные на фантазию и вкус украшения экстерьера.В Норт Каролине они шикарнее и модерновее.Торговые ряды не меняли свой облик,кажется лет 200.См. на 5-й мин.Цены на продукты по сравнению с Нью Йорком - смешные.Рыба маха-маха,которую (см. ролик на 6 мин.) испохабили,положив ее в сендвич,потрясающе вкусна.Кстати ,неприятно удивило то,насколько стандартно питается отдыхающий народ.Идешь мимо открытых кафе - и повсюду на столах чипсы,жареная картошка и бутерброды.Из местных много курящей молодежи в сплошных татуировках...Все - заядлые рыбаки.Особенно впечатлили супермены носящиеся по волнам на досках с парусом - на огромной скорости.Я раньше такого не видела.Про дельфинов не пишу,обычное дело,а вот увидеть в зарослях возле дома крошку енотика было приятно.
Kitchen at Benny's has great food! It's at Benny's Tavern right at the square. Kitchen at Benny's aka Fat Bastard's! lol. Awesome food at a great price!
Tybee is my favorite place in the world! I can't even remember how many times I've been here for vacation! Good memories!

Covered some nice points of Tybee. Would suggest you start with a map view of the geography and surprised you didn't cover the beach.
Thanks for the tip! Next time I'm down that way, I'll try it.
Good job Robin! I enjoyed the tour. I think I may vacation here instead of in the Caribbean :-)....
It's about time! Have fun..
A perfect vacation! Have fun.
This place sounds like a hoot, I like it.
Who's playin the 12 string guitar on the music for this great video????????????
Glad to hear you like Savannah. Wonderful town. Catch my interview on youtube with Uncle Bubba!
