Your Tybee Island Escape Serenity at the Sea truly lives up to its name for guests seeking a peaceful Tybee retreat directly on the island's back river. While this slice of Tybee is every bit as beautiful as the more “touristy” spots, it offers a sense of hidden charm that many visitors love. Often called Tybee's “secret beach,” Back River Beach features wide stretches of soft sand and gentle waves. Its proximity to Highway 80 also makes it a convenient choice for travelers planning a day trip to nearby Savannah. A visit to the Tybee Island Light Station and Museum is a classic choice that helps visitors fall in love with this barrier island near Savannah. Located on Meddin Drive near the Savannah River entrance, Tybee's famed lighthouse has stood tall since 1736. It's both the oldest and tallest lighthouse in Georgia. Visitors can spend a day touring the lighthouse and surrounding grounds to experience a glimpse of a lighthouse keeper's life. Other top Tybee Island attractions include the Tybee Island Marine Science Center, Fort Pulaski National Monument, the Tybee Post Theatre, and the island's three main beaches—North, Mid, and South. For those hoping to stay active during their Tybee Island vacation, there are countless options for ocean kayaking, biking, and beach hikes. While guests often spot dolphins near Back River Beach, there are also opportunities to join day cruises for an up-close look at Georgia's playful dolphins. Tybee Island is also a great place to celebrate seasonal and cultural events. While the annual Tybee Island Pirate Fest is the island's biggest draw every October, the rest of the year brings fun celebrations like the Beach Bum Parade, Tybee Turtle Trot, Independence Day fireworks, and the Labor Day Beach Bash.
