2024 Sea Turtle Nesting Season Update!
Only a few months left this season! As we move into August, let's see how this season's nesting numbers are shaping up compared to the past two years.
Statewide preliminary totals as of July 31st:
- 113,382 loggerhead nests (129,169 in 2023 and 112,411 in 2022)
- 8,887 green turtle nests (56,543 in 2023 and 24,665 in 2022)
- 1,829 leatherback nests (1,705 in 2023 and 1,819 in 2022)
- 24 confirmed Kemp’s ridley nests (10 in 2023 and 8 in 2022)
Leatherbacks continue to have a good season so far, while green turtle nest numbers remain low. These low green turtle numbers are not unexpected and are not concerning our team at this time due to record nest numbers in 2023. These preliminary numbers show that 2024 will be a record-breaking year for Kemp’s ridley nests in Florida, and a very good year for the leatherbacks. Thanks to all of the partners involved in this outstanding community science effort to document sea turtle nesting activity across the state! Check back for monthly updates throughout the season!

We ask that when you leave the beach for the day, please knock down sandcastles and fill in any holes in the sand.
While digging in the sand can be fun, large holes like the one pictured can pose serious risks. They can collapse and trap people, creating dangerous situations. Holes also become hazards for other beachgoers and our emergency vehicles. Additionally, large holes can disrupt nesting sea turtles and their hatchlings. For everyone’s safety, please fill in any holes before you leave the beach. Let’s keep our beaches safe and enjoyable for all! 🐢💙🌊🛟
Shopping is always a perfect rainy day (or sunny) activity. We love Seaside Sisters, always the cutest finds, and tomorrow 50% off 🤩
Cockspur lighthouse (which was just a day marker to begin), was financed in 1832 to mark the south end channel of the Savannah river. It was in recent years that the door and stairwell were shut and folks could no longer journey to the top. Who has climbed her? Share your memories if you have them?

Great resource for the wild weather 🌀
Debby continues to decay inland. The storm has slowed down, which is bad, but it is still moving, which is good, it seems to maybe be going to go farther offshore, which is bad, but may be pulling …

All history is worth sharing, for it took a diverse community to create what we all enjoy today.
I will start with acknowledging that the role of the tour guide can take the traveler in a multitude of directions, figurative and literally. While adventuring about, the desires of the traveler may vary from a deep desire to learn to light sightseeing, and make no mistake, Tybee Tour Company offers both. Led by historian and retired educator, Jacilyn Ledford, sharing the fun and fascinating history of Tybee Island became the goal beginning in March of 2022. While it took until 2023 to begin the public offerings of our islands history, it was well worth the wait. As the robust island history unfolded through continued and extensive research, it was paramount to share the stories of ALL who have impacted the Tybee Island we love and enjoy today. Common names boasted around the island such as Fort Screven, Oglethorpe, Nina Anderson Pape are stories that were easy to curate and lovely history to share, but a new joy has truly been discovered in giving presence and power to those untold heros and minority voices such as the natives groups of the Yuchi, Walter Brown, Jack Mungin, James Adams, and of course TS Chu.
With a robust selection of powerful minority stories worth sharing, Tybee Tour Company was recently coined as ‘Knowledgeable Rebels’, and we could not be more proud. There is a point of satisfaction in sharing a story that is typically over looked or unshared. We aim to educate and create an appreciation for all who had a hand in creating a home on our favorite sand barrier island.
All history is worth sharing, for it took a diverse community to create what we all enjoy today.
We welcome EVERYONE to our tours and to Tybee Island, for our island was created by and sustained by so many.

Hi! We’re raising funds to support Tybee Clean Beach Volunteers, a group of lo… Timothy Arnold needs your support for Help Tybee Clean Beach Stay on the Move!
😭A sad picture from last night's beach clean up: polystyrene (aka styrofoam) pellets as far as the eye could see entering the ocean with each wave hitting the shore. It's nearly impossible to recover these fragments. They are likely from a foam cooler or cheap boogie board.
Please don't purchase or bring to the beach anything containing polystyrene that could easily break apart and enter the ocean. Leave only footprints! 👣

How lucky are we to be on Tybee! A bit of our lucky vibe comes from Tybee Island’s strong Irish heritage. Dating back to the mid-1800s, a group of Irish immigrants settled on the island as laborers in the construction of the Savannah-Tybee Railroad. This group established a strong Irish-American community whose presence continues to have influence and is celebrated on Tybee Island in various ways, including our own St. Patrick’s parade. We are lucky to have Tybee, as Tybee has a bit of Irish heritage Luck 🍀 Fun facts: The Tybee Lighthouse was designed by Irish immigrant architect Charles Cluskey and constructed by Irish laborers. It was partially burnt down in the civil war by Irish man Jasper Greens of Savannah. #tybee #visittybee #tybeetourcompany #irishheritage Get to know more with us: we guide the fun!

Yes, teens are into the wild, wacky, haunted and weird of Tybee & Savannah.
As a beloved beach destination, Tybee Island has seen the expansion and means of transportation for beach lovers to gain access to our barrier island, and their own slice of paradise, since the early 1800s. Originally, steam ships were utilized to bring passengers from Savannah to Tybee, docking on the north end of the island and allowing carted mules to haul visitors to the south end hotels and beach resorts. The first steam boat to cross the Atlantic, aptly named The Savannah, made a special trip to tybee with President Monroe in tow. Not purely for leisure, this famous trip was meant to help to christen the ship before her long (and highly doubted) voyage to England in May 1819. These steamboats would become the option for travel until the tybee railroad was built in 1887. The railroad would allow for many more day travelers, as well as the expansion of Fort Screven as a safe guard and gate keeper to the Savannah coastline. Promoting day and weekend excursions, the railroad was a fifty minute ride from Savannah, with round trip rail tickets costing 35 cents for adults and 20 cents for children age five to twelve. With ease of access to the island, Savannah’s beach erupted to its heightened hey-days of sun bathers, dance pavilions, and the reliance on the tybee train depot. The end of the line ran to the south end of Tybee, coming to a halt and turn-around near Izlar avenue, just in front of the original grocery store for the island. The railroad itself saw its last track to tybee on July 31,1933. The construction of the road to Tybee had made the train obsolete, and gave beach goers the ability to come and go from our beaches at their own leisure, ensuring all would remain on ‘Tybee Time’.
