An Introduction to Georgia's Tybee Island

While Tybee Island may be best known for its scenic beaches, its inshore fishing, sport shooting, and golf opportunities are not to be overlooked. Miles of mud flats and salt marshes are home to an impressive redfish population – feeding eagerly in the clear, shallow waters. The Club at Savannah Harbor winds through beautiful tidal wetlands, with challenging holes and abundant wildlife to watch while you play. Finally, the sporting clays course at Dorchester Hunting Preserve features ten fully automatic stations, nestled among majestic live oaks and towering pines. Whether you are an avid angler, golfer and clays shooter – or you’re just getting started – Tybee Island has everything you need for a fun-filled weekend retreat. 

Tybee Island is located on the southeastern coast of Georgia, just east of downtown Savannah – at the mouth of the Savannah River, where it meets the Atlantic Ocean. This blend of environments makes it a hotspot for wildlife, including migratory birds, dolphins, and even sea turtles.  The island offers a relaxed, coastal vibe, while still offering easy access to the historic charm and cultural attractions of Savannah – and its mild temperatures make it the perfect destination for a winter weekend getaway. 

During your time on Tybee Island, you’ll stay at the iconic Barracks on Tybee, which offers views of Jaycee Park in the National Historic Fort Screven District — an area brimming with stunning scenery and a wealth of history, including the lighthouse, Tybee Island Museum, and Officer's Row. The weekend will include a laid-back welcome dinner at Hop Atomica in downtown Savannah, where you can unwind and ease into the weekend, as well as a thoughtfully crafted surf-and-turf farewell dinner, prepared by private chef Val Domingo.

Day 1

Upon arrival in Savannah, you’ll be treated to a relaxing welcome dinner at Hop Atomica. Check-in at the Barracks on Tybee Island is at 4pm, giving you plenty of time to get settled in before heading to downtown Savannah for dinner and drinks. 

Day 2

Your first morning on Tybee Island will feature a Cast + Blast trip with Tall Tides Charters, chasing redfish and shooting clays on the marsh. The afternoon adventure will take place at The Westin Savannah Harbor Golf Club, where you’ll play 9 holes on the PGA Championship course.  

Day 3

After another morning chasing reds with Tall Tides Charters, get ready for a round of 100 clays at the nearby Dorchester Shooting Preserve. After shooting, enjoy a private catered Farewell Dinner back at the Barracks on Tybee Island for the final evening.

Day 4

Check-out from the Barracks will be at 10 am. Say your goodbyes and take your excellent weekend memories with you!
