Tybee Island

Tybee Island is a barrier island and small city near Savannah, Georgia. It's known for its wide, sandy beaches, including South Beach, with a pier and pavilion. In the island's north, Fort Screven has 19th-century concrete gun batteries and the Tybee Island Light Station and Museum. The still-functioning 18th-century lighthouse has been rebuilt many times. The museum, in Battery Garland, focuses on local history.
