Spot info
- Town: Tybee Island (Georgia)
- Water: Sea
- Sports: Surf
- Best wind directions: WWNWWSWNWSW
Georgia's main beach island, at the mouth of the Savannah River east of Savannah. The waves are usually small, because the wide continental shelf off this coast takes the power out of most swells. It works best on east to north-east swell from a nor'easter or a passing tropical storm, with a westerly wind offshore. Surfers gather around the pier; summer is often flat.
