Tybee Island

Tybee island is affectionately referred to as Savannah's beach. "Tybee means "salt" to Native Americans. Located 18 miles east of Savannah, this small barrier island boasts a wide, 3-mile long beach that's backed by sea oat-covered sand dunes and is perfect for sunbathing, people-watching and frolicking in the waves of the Atlantic Ocean. The island's south-end pier and pavilion is a splendid venue for strolling above the ocean and listening to the music of the live bands". We drove over on Friday, July 6th (my birthday) and went to the pier and pavilion. It was really hot outside and there were ALOT of people on the beach and enjoying the ocean. We strolled through the small, but informative Marine Science Center. Before heading back to Savannah, we had a really good seafood dinner. It was a nice birthday. I'm happy that I made it to 30.
