Tybee Island Day Trip & Dolphin Watching

Tybee Island Day Trip & Dolphin Watching

On our Tybee Island Day Trip, we will explore significant sites related to the American Civil War and enjoy a dolphin watching activity. We will meet at the Savannah Visitor Centre at the scheduled time to board a bus heading to Tybee Island, located in Chatham County.

Upon arrival, a scenic tour will highlight historic sites, including Fort Pulaski, known for its role in the Civil War and its innovative use of rifles that made coastal cannons obsolete. We will also visit the Tybee Island Lighthouse and Cockspur Island Lighthouse, the latter having significant historical value from the battle of Fort Pulaski, remaining mostly undamaged despite the conflict.

After the tour, we will have free time for lunch at the Crab Shack, a restaurant known for its unique atmosphere. Following lunch, we will board a boat for a dolphin watching experience, where we can observe the friendly bottlenose dolphins in their natural habitat, along with seabirds.

After the boat tour, we will return to the minibus for transportation back to the meeting point in Savannah.
