Tybee Island
The word “tybee” means “salt” to Native Americans but this low-key seaside resort is known for sun, surf, and fun. Just 18 miles east of Savannah, this small barrier island boasts a wide, three-mile long beach with sea oat-covered dunes and is perfect for sunbathing, people watching, and frolicking in the Atlantic Ocean.

Hilton Head
Hilton Head is a refreshing and serene seaside getaway and is known as the most family friendly destination in the world (it also features the top 10 family beaches in the country!).

Beaufort
Located on Port Royal Island, this unique Southern town has been described as mystical, alluring, and magical by the many people who have visited here. The attraction is the sun-washed white beaches and a casual, easy-paced lifestyle. 

St. Simons Island
Another seaside retreat, St. Simons Island combines land, sea, and sky to create a perfect daytrip destination from Savannah, GA. This is the place where you can swim or sunbathe, go kayaking, sailing, fishing, beachcombing, hiking, or jogging along the water’s edge.

Jekyll Island
Midway between Savannah and Jacksonville, Jekyll Island is a remarkable island retreat for those who want to spend a day near the water. Explore miles of barrier island beaches and dune lines edging woodlands. It’s got an enchanting National Historic Landmark District, miles of emerald fairways for golfers, and plenty of things to see and do!
