One Day in Tybee Island

Take the easy drive (a little more than an hour) from Hilton Head and discover the quaint beach town of Tybee Island, located just 20 minutes from downtown Savannah. Wide beaches, gentle waves – take the day to unwind and explore a quieter side of Georgia.

9:00 a.m. – 10:30 a.m. | Breakfast: A Tybee Island staple since 1976, the Breakfast Club is a local favorite. Known as the “best breakfast in Savannah,” kick off your Tybee Island adventure by creating your own omelet or enjoying a country fried steak breakfast. Vegetarian and vegan friendly, fill your belly with something good before you start your adventure in Tybee.

11:00 a.m. – 1:00 p.m. | Tybee Island Light Station: Georgia’s oldest and tallest lighthouse, the Tybee Island Light Station is a must-see. Spend your morning exploring a piece of history and take advantage of the perfect photo opportunity (be sure to tag #myRCI) at this treasured attraction. Note – the lighthouse is closed on Tuesdays.

1:30 p.m. – 2:30 p.m. | Lunch: Described as a “vibrantly colored outpost for a broad variety of Mexican staples,” the Agave Bar and Grill is a Tybee Island fixture. Cool off with cold drinks and delicious food before exploring the rest of the island.

3:00 p.m. - 5:00 p.m. | Dolphin Tour with Captain Mike: Schedule an afternoon Dolphin Tour with Captain Mike to view the Cockspur Lighthouse, and the Tybee Lighthouse up close.
