Tybee for Two
Consider this your sign to plan the beach getaway you’ve been talking about. From slow mornings by the ocean and bike rides around the island to fresh seafood, sunset drinks and plenty of time with your toes in the sand, Tybee Island makes it easy to unplug without running out of things to do. With Hotel Tybee as your beachfront home base, this couples getaway guide brings together some of our favorite ways to eat, explore, unwind and make the most of your time together.
And of course, there's so much more to Tybee than what's listed here. Stay with us and plan your Tybee getaway, your way.
Day One: South Beach and Island Energy
Breakfast at Sunrise Restaurant
Start with a classic Tybee breakfast. Try the Tybee Omelet, or keep it traditional with eggs, grits, biscuits, and plenty of coffee.
Explore South Beach
Walk the beach, visit the Tybee Pier and Pavilion, browse Tybrisa Street, then grab a couple of beach chairs and settle in for the morning.
Lunch at Treylor Park Beach Party
Just a short walk from Hotel Tybee, enjoy creative cocktails and playful dishes like avocado fries, PB&J wings, nachos, or shrimp-and-grits tacos in a lively setting.
Bikes, Pools, or More Beach Time
Cruise Tybee on a Hotel Tybee bike, or spend the afternoon at the pools and Tybee Tidal Zone. The splash pad is just as fun for adults!
Sunset from Alley Three
Grab a drink and head to Alley Three on the Back River, one of the island’s best spots to watch the sunset.
Dinner at Back River Brewery
Order a flight of locally brewed beer and settle in for a casual dinner. On Fridays and Saturdays, you may also catch live music from 7–10 p.m.
Day Two: Lighthouse, History, and Tybee’s Best Dinner
Breakfast at Sunrise Restaurant
Switch it up this morning with the Shrimp Delight Omelet or the weekend breakfast buffet.
Climb the Tybee Island Lighthouse
Tour the lighthouse and museum, then climb to the top for one of the best views on the Georgia coast.
North Beach
Stroll the beach, hunt for shells, and explore the historic Fort Screven area.
Lunch at North Beach Bar & Grill
Enjoy seafood, island-inspired dishes, and a cold drink just steps from the lighthouse and North Beach.

Morning Dolphin Cruise
A dolphin cruise offers beautiful views of the island, Cockspur Lighthouse, Fort Pulaski, and the surrounding waterways.
Lunch at Sting Ray’s Seafood
Settle into the outdoor seating for seafood, cold drinks, and a wonderfully casual Tybee atmosphere.
Shop and Explore Tybee
Visit the local shops and vendors at Tybee Oaks, search for souvenirs along Butler Avenue, or grab bicycles for one final island ride.
Final Beach Afternoon
Spend a few hours doing absolutely nothing—and doing it extremely well. Swim, read, nap, or take a long walk beside the ocean.
Dinner at Bubba Gumbo’s
Finish the trip beside Lazaretto Creek with fresh local seafood, shrimp, oysters, and an authentic dockside atmosphere. Arrive early enough to enjoy the view before dark.
Farewell Walk on the Pier
End the getaway with one last walk along the Tybee Pier, listening to the waves and making plans for the next visit.
