Ecotourism
Tybee Island is the perfect place for eco-tourism, i.e., responsible travel to natural areas that conserves the environment and improves the well-being of local people. With its pristine marshes, clean beaches, and uninhabited surrounding islands, Tybee and her population strive to conserve the natural beauty of the area. You can kayak your way around the clean, unspoiled rivers, creeks and marshes; rent a boat and see the natural beauty of the coast line; hike the bird trails and hiking trails, including our six-mile Old Railroad Trail and Ft. Pulaski’s grounds; bicycle; witness the dolphins playing in the waves; and generally enjoy nature. Visit the Marine Science Center for a study of the Coastal environment and what you might find in its waters.
Just off Tybee is a terrific animal sanctuary with educational exhibits and animals presented in their natural habitat. Oatland Island is great for anyone interested in nature.
