Amazing ,heart melting experience.Me and my friends did the Sunset tour on little Tybee and boy am i teelling you i was so mind blown by the colors of the sky ,reflections of the sun against the water,fresh air breeze and lots of laughs on the friendly ride with Seth. Very professional gentleman,he knew the waters by heart,well equipped boat, skilled driving, felt safe and very well taken care of.

Wow! The charter boat was one of my favorite parts about our trip to Georgia! Seth was an amazing boat captain, guiding us through the marshes and even to the edge where the river meets the ocean so we could find dolphins. And we did find them! There were so many cool species of birds, and I loved watching the pelicans dive into the water for food. Seth dropped us off on a small private beach to walk, swim, and explore for about 30 minutes before picking us back up on the other side. The total tour was 3 hours long, and it was a great way to explore the island. To get to the dock you have to walk straight through the Crab Shack (near where the birds are). He can bring you right back here after, or, like for us, he dropped us off at the south beach on Tybee Island so we could walk to get lunch. Highly recommend!

Our boat trip with Crab Creek Charters was the highlight of our wonderful week in the Tybee / Savannah area. We booked The Little Tybee Trip online one day ahead, and received great instructions on what to bring and where to meet via email and text. We met the boat at The Crab Shack, and as we started navigating slowly through through the marsh we immediately spotted a mama and baby dolphin swimming around the waterway. We also spotted lots of other wildlife, including beautiful birds and jumping fish. Captain Seth was an excellent boat pilot with a mystifying ability to navigate the marsh. He shared lots of information about the area: the tides, the environment, and the wildlife. We enjoyed walking along the beach on Little Tybee and picking up buckets of shells and sand dollars. It was a wonderful excursion! My daughter said to give Captain Seth a ten star review!

Sunset in the marsh

Unbelievably awesome vacation memories! When we got in the car to leave, the kids and husband thanked me for finding this awesome tour. Feeling under-appreciated? A sunset boat trip through the marshes of Tybee and a long walk on a completely wild beach will fix you right up! We booked by phone with Captain Seth. (He did not introduce himself as Captain, but it feels right.) We met him at the Crab Shack dock, and he was ready with the correct sIze life jacket for our 12 yo. Here are the things I was worried about beforehand: 1- 3 hours would be too long; 2- what if Captain Seth was weird; and 3- a combination of 1&2. Thankfully our experience reinforced my self view, which is that I'm a complete, worrying, idiot. We started out at 5:30pm and snaked our way through the beautiful wetlands of the area. We saw egrets, heron, a bald eagle nest and kept our eyes out for The Others. (Who gets my Lost reference?) The area we traveled felt like something out of Lost, pre-Others, in that it's all innocent. Just nature's beauty. The sunlight glowing on the marsh waters as we meandered through tiny channels, close enough to reach out and touch the grasses. The salty breeze and rushing sound of the wind as we picked up speed. The kingfishers flying nearby and coolly turning 90 degrees to dive straight into the water. Nature slayed. Captain Seth piloted us to an island and suggested we drop a pin on Google maps. He showed us on the map where to meet him at the end of our walk. And then He. Left. Us. Alone on the beach. And motored off. We were castaways. It was freaking amazing. First off - zero ppl. Zero footprints, zero beach blenders, zero boom boxes blasting Macklemore on this beach. It was welcomingly desolate. There were shells Everywhere. Like giant gift shop shells. We took pictures. We explored. The kids were holding hands. It was magical. Pure dopamine. The moon rose one one side of the island and the sun started to hang low on the other. We found Captain Seth and he took some nice sunset pics of us. (On My phone bc he's not a weirdo). We gracefully slid onto the boat, ha!, and started back. Sunset in the marsh was gorgeous. It got dark as we pulled up, and I wished we had started the tour earlier so we could have had more than 3 hours.

Great time! Very relaxing. Little Tybee Island is a gem to be cherished. Shelling, birdwatching, scenery phenomenal. No one else on the beach Captain Seth's knowledge of the salt marshes and his respect for the ecosystem made for good conversation. What a great trip! Thank you Captain Seth!

Relaxing on the boat!

Seth was awesome! Great experience! Would recommend to anyone visiting Tybee! Best way to see the island!

Beautiful

Enjoyed every minute. Would gladly go again. Nice and serene. Captain was informative and very pleasant.

We found Sundial Charters had what we were looking for and after calling and posting to FaceBook we were able to connect and make plans for them to take us to Little Tybee. Captains Dave and Rene communicated well with us including instructions where to meet and we took a 4 hour boating trip to Little Tybee and surrounding area. Rene came shell hunting with us and she is EXTREMELY knowledgeable about the types of shells, the environment, and the wildlife/ birds that are in the area. Dave shared history of the island and marsh as he guided the boat through the waterways. My husband and I were very impressed by their knowledge and welcoming demeanor. We go so many sand dollars it was like Easter! It was indeed a pleasure that we hope to repeat on our next visit to Tybee. Maybe next time we'll try fossil hunting.

We loved seeing Hopper the dolphin, also. Our guide, Kyle, was so knowledgeable and did a great job of explaining how the area has changed and the importance of the marshes. We all had such a wonderful time on the boat and with Kyle. The kids loves it when he'd turn on the "air conditioning" by going faster. We will definitely be going with them again!

It was a…read morerelaxing way to see Savannah from a different perspective while learning about the riverfront and the Port of Savannah. The narration was informative, and seeing the massive cargo ships and waterfront activity was a unique experience. The boat was spacious, with both indoor seating and outdoor viewing areas. We ordered the chicken tenders and fries, and they were surprisingly good--definitely above average for food on a sightseeing cruise. We also opted for the 42 oz souvenir drink, which was well worth it if you plan on enjoying a few drinks during the cruise. It lasts the full three-hour experience, and the bartender was fantastic--friendly, personable, and made a great drink. Unfortunately, it rained during part of our cruise, which likely impacted the experience since we couldn't spend as much time outside taking in the views. Of course, the weather isn't something the company can control, and there was plenty of indoor seating to stay comfortable. Overall, this was a fun and worthwhile experience that I'd recommend to first-time visitors, couples, and families. Between the scenic views, interesting narration, better-than-expected food, and excellent bar service, it was an enjoyable way to spend a few hours on the Savannah River. I'd definitely return--hopefully on a sunny day next time.

There was some history mixed in along the way, which was interesting, and the whole experience was relaxing. The food was probably the weakest part for me. It was served buffet style with fried chicken, mac and cheese, mashed potatoes and gravy, plus fruit. It wasn't bad, but it was all pretty lukewarm and just didn't leave much of an impression. That said, I don't think people are booking this for the food anyway. You're booking it for the views, the boat, and the experience. We had fun, enjoyed the ride, and I'm glad we did it.

We headed over to the lighthouse and got the tickets. They have senior discounts, military discounts, and various deals, but the price is very reasonable and it includes your trip up the lighthouse and you also have the museum across the street that has so much detail you can spend hours there. The view from the top of the lighthouse gives you such an amazing perspective of Tybee Island and the beach is enormous and you can see quite a bit of it from the top of the lighthouse. Make sure you're in good physical condition to walk up 196 stairs, which is like six levels up. They limit the number of people that can go up the lighthouse all at one time so it doesn't get congested up at the top. They keep just a handful of people going at one time.

Tybee Island is around 30 minutes away in a cozy little coastal town. The rate to go in the lighthouse covers the lighthouse and their museum. We only had time for the lighthouse. The price is $12 for adults and $10 for children. Children 5 and under are free. I was surprised they allow children of all ages. Normally there is a height restriction. My youngest (4) was thrilled because he's always wanted to join on our family tradition but was too short or young. He did a excellent job along with our (8) year old and my husband walking up the 178 steps. This is the tallest lighthouse in Georgia and the climb is fairly easy in my opinion. There is a break at every 25 steps where you can look out a window or just take a breath and let people pass if needed. The view from above is beautiful. You can see the water. There is no staff member at the top and the staff do not spend long explaining the lighthouse but there are signs to read. Overall it was a good experience and it's a beautiful lighthouse. Worth the visit. Next time we will carve time for the m
