Finding activities and events near your Tybee vacation rentals is almost as easy as simply walking out your door. The beach is never far away on this small island and is definitely the top draw for most visitors. You'll find that the North Beach is quieter than the other beaches. Along with the beach, the other main sights on Tybee are the Tybee Island Lighthouse and Museum, the Tybee Marine Science Center, and Fort Pulaski. This particular property is close to the Tybee Lighthouse on the north side of the island. The lighthouse is over 200 years old, and visitors can climb to the top for a great view of the island. The museum nearby gives more information about the lighthouse. Fort Pulaski is a Civil War-era fort built to protect the United States coastline and was the site of a battle of the same name. The fort is well-preserved and offers guided tours, as well as a visitor center and special exhibits. The fort is actually on Cockspur Island, just to the west of Tybee. While there, you can also visit the Cockspur Island Lighthouse.
So Much To Do at Your Fingertips!
At the Tybee Marine Science Center, you can get in on guided beach walks to explore both the beaches and marshes of Tybee. There are plenty of other activities on the island as well, including dolphin watching, fishing, kayaking, and more. Tybee is also located only about 20 miles from Savannah, and it's an easy drive by taxi or car. Savannah is full of even more activities and attractions, including Forsyth Park, River Street, the City Market, and much more. It's also home to a range of museums, historic architecture, and plenty of fantastic restaurants.
