This was our first time to Tybee Island and the beach. We stayed at the Howard Johnson Hotel across the street from the beach, near the pier and pavilion, so there were quite a few people, but it wasn't so much that you couldn't find a decent spot to set up. The beach itself is nice, clean, and seemed to... More

We visited the beach for the day. First of all, school was not even out and you could not find a parking spot. You have to pay for parking everywhere and it is $0.25 for every 10 minutes. We looked for an hour, even willing to pay $20 for parking and everything was full. Finally after an hour, we found... More

We went to the North side and visited some friends and watched the dolphins playing in the water. It was so relaxing. We were staying on the southside, close to the pier and it was really relaxing too. People were fishing off the pier and everyone there seemed to be enjoying their time on the beach. Can't wait to return... More

The beach is lovely, but are you ready to spend big dollars on parking meters and move your car every two hours? Otherwise, pay the ransom for off-street parking. The municipality must se us visitors as muggs to be ripped off.

We drove from Savannah to spend the day at the beach on Tybee Island. This is a beautiful location, very low key and relaxing. The parking was horrible. We drove around for a while to find a place to park. I already knew we had to pay to park...no big deal, but trying to find a place was difficult. We... More

We always include a trip out to Tybee when we visit Savannah and this trip was no exception. We always enjoy walking the boardwalk and spending some time relaxing or playing in the sand and letting the ocean wash over our feet. Tybee is a resort island so in warmer months it can be crowded but the funky vibe of... More

I've never been to the ocean so this was my first beach. It was very nice with the breeze and soft sand. It was a weeknight and very quiet. Parking by the pier is $2/hr with a 2 hour minimum. I thought his was very reasonable since I wasn't there all day. Would definitely return!
