Explore Tybee Island, GA: Coastal Living Just Minutes from Savannah
Welcome to Tybee Island, Georgia — a charming coastal enclave just 20 minutes east of downtown Savannah. Tucked into Chatham County, Tybee offers a one-of-a-kind blend of laid-back beach culture, rich history, and outdoor adventure, all within arm’s reach of the city. Whether you're considering buying a vacation home, investing in a rental property, or relocating full-time, Tybee Island real estate offers a unique opportunity to enjoy coastal living at its finest.
A Seaside Community with Southern Charm

Tybee Island isn’t your average beach town. It’s a true community — friendly, eclectic, and deeply rooted in its coastal traditions. The island is home to just over 3,000 residents, but it welcomes thousands more throughout the year who come to enjoy its pristine beaches, lively festivals, and relaxed pace of life. From colorful cottages to luxury oceanfront homes, the housing styles on Tybee reflect the island’s quirky personality and strong sense of place.

As one of Savannah’s most beloved barrier islands, Tybee Island is a perfect choice for those who want the serenity of a beach town without straying too far from city conveniences. It’s easy to see why homes for sale on Tybee Island are in high demand year-round.
Beaches, Landmarks, and Local History

Tybee’s shoreline is its crown jewel — five miles of public beaches, each with its own character. From North Beach’s wide, peaceful shores to South Beach’s bustling boardwalk and pier, there’s a stretch of sand for every mood. Spend your days soaking up the sun, swimming in the Atlantic, or strolling the sand dunes with a view of the shrimp boats and dolphins just offshore.
History buffs will love the iconic Tybee Island Lighthouse and Museum. Dating back to 1736, the lighthouse is one of the oldest in the U.S. and offers sweeping views of the coastline. Fort Pulaski National Monument, located just off the island on nearby Cockspur Island, gives visitors a glimpse into the Civil War era with preserved fortifications and walking trails.
Outdoor Living at Its Best

Life on Tybee is all about the outdoors. Whether you’re into water sports, wildlife, or simply relaxing in the ocean breeze, Tybee Island delivers. Kayaking through the marshes, paddleboarding along the Back River, and joining a dolphin tour at sunset are everyday adventures here.
Nature lovers will appreciate spots like the North Beach Birding Trail and the Tybee Island Marine Science Center. The island also boasts plenty of green space for biking, jogging, or enjoying a beachside picnic. Want to try your hand at fishing? Head to the Back River Fishing Pier or charter a boat for a deep-sea excursion.

A Food Scene Full of Flavor
For a small island, Tybee delivers big on flavor. The local dining scene ranges from fresh-off-the-boat seafood shacks to upscale coastal cuisine. Enjoy Lowcountry boils, fried oysters, or grilled shrimp tacos at favorites like The Crab Shack or Coco’s Sunset Grille. Grab a cocktail with ocean views at The Deck or enjoy brunch at one of the island’s many casual cafés.
There’s no need to leave the island to eat well — Tybee has a little something for every taste and budget.
