In the spring, the Tybee Island Seafood Festival takes place on Tybee Island, GA. This premier, down-home “culinary” festival & family-friendly weekend offers delicious local favorites prepared by the island’s finest restuarants and caterers, as well as live performances by the regions best musical artists.

Known for its fresh shrimp, Tybee will dish it up fried, flayed, broiled, blackened, and boiled–any way you wish. But it won’t end there. They’ll be crab cakes, low country boil, fish, mahi-mahi, grouper–just about anything you could want from the Georgia waters.

Don’t like seafood? Don’t worry–they’ll be something for everyone. Come on down.
