Why go
The island offers a change from Savannah’s squares to Atlantic sand and tidal water. Its beaches have different landmarks and moods, so the useful decision is which stretch of coast suits your day, not simply whether to visit “Tybee.” The beach choice also determines which other island landmarks can fit naturally into the outing.
What to look for
- North Beach sits near the Tybee Island Light Station.
- South Beach is anchored by Tybee Pier.
- Tide-shaped pools and shoreline finds reward a slower beach walk.
Useful to know
- Choose a specific beach and check current parking rules before leaving Savannah.
- Check local surf, tide and beach-safety notices for the selected shore.
- Keep the lighthouse climb as a separate ticketed stop if you want more than a beach visit.
