Nature & Sightseeing Excursions To Tybee & Skidaway

A few private boat tours explore the ecology and history of Tybee Island, with sightseeing tours of the island and fossil-hunting excursions for shark teeth and other prehistoric fragments currently available. See Tybee Island boat tours

Nature-oriented boat tours of the inland marshes near Savannah, around the Skidaway River and its larger creeks, are also available, mostly departing from either Isle of Hope or Thunderbolt. See Skidaway tours

Boat Trips To Georgia’s Barrier Islands

The three major barrier islands south of Tybee – Little Tybee, Wassaw and Ossabaw – are readily accessible as a day trip from the Savannah-Tybee region. As none of the islands have road access, a boat (or kayak, or paddleboard) is the only way to get there.

The pristine nature reserve of Little Tybee Island is the easiest to get to, a short boat ride south of Tybee. Several boat excursions are available, either touring the island and exploring its creeks (when tides allow) to see dolphins and birds, or landing, with time on the island’s secluded beaches to relax or look for shells. See Little Tybee boat tours

Further afield are Wassaw National Wildlife Refuge, and Ossabaw Island, the latter privately managed as a nature reserve and cultural site. The large publicly-accessible portion of Wassaw offers beautiful beaches and hiking trails through the island’s forested ridge, and most boat excursions will allow time to venture on land. See boat trips to Wassaw Island

The situation at Ossabaw is slightly more complicated. The beach is accessible to all, with many boat tours touring the island or landing only on these public areas. Access to the interior is controlled by the Ossabaw Island Foundation, and must be arranged either directly with them or via a tour guide, who will arrange access on your behalf. More about visiting Ossabaw Island, and details of available boat tours

Private Adventures

Cruise the great outdoors on our savannah boat tours.

The 5-hour tour is hands down the best way to spend a day! They have a private island with tons of fun things to do! We’ve done this twice this year and both captains we had were amazing!

I took the Wildlife Refuge Excursion with Capt. Peter Pearson. If you are looking for a small boat tour, this is it. We spent 3 hours on the water. After turning at Fort Jackson and going under the first bridge, we didn't see another boat until about 15 minutes before returning to the dock. It is so peaceful and beautiful cruising through the wildlife refuge. Captain Peter has a good eye and was able to help me see the wildlife that I probably would have missed if he hadn't pointed them out. He is very friendly and knowledgeable about the river. I highly recommend this trip!

Celebrating our 15th Anniversary in Savannah we decided to take the Outside Outback tour to explore more. Non-swimmer & adventurer, I surprisingly dropped all my fears and had an amazing experience on the water. It was BREATH TAKING! Captain Boo had a great sense of humor and was very knowledgeable and charismatic. I can’t imagine it going so well without him.

First let me say, we are residents of Savannah and in the hospitality industry too. Hubby and I had a Monday off and had been very interested in our local port. We NEVER get tired of seeing these large container ships making their way down the Savannah River. Peter was our guide and absolutely incredible! We were able to learn so much about our local port, how important the port is to our local and national economy, and how complex this entire system is! Another plus we didn't expect? Seeing a baby sea turtle in the river, along with a bald eagle and other wildlife. We are now referring this tour to our neighbors, visitors, and family. Even the little ones will love this tour. One of the best tours EVER in Savannah! Book it now! You won't be disappointed!

We took the 7-hour Ultimate Lowcountry Day. Captain Peter made sure we had a great day from the time he picked us up at the port to when he dropped us off. Seeing the dolphins was very high on my priority list and Captain Peter knew exactly where to take us. Boy did he come through! We probably saw 20-30 dolphins with many of them up close. He also made sure my kids had a great time including tubing, kayaking, and jumping off a platform. He made sure we were all safe and still made it so much fun for them. Overall, this is a tour I’d highly recommend to anybody!

Boo was very informative and patient with our group. We were impressed by his knowledge of local history and his humorous and engaging manner. We all greatly enjoyed the tour of Daufuskie Island and would highly recommend this company and captain.

I loved this tour! Such a cool way to see the city. Going into the port, seeing all the big ships, and learning more about their operations was fascinating. My tour guide Ryan Pirkle was very informative. I have been on many tours in Savannah but he definitely taught me things I had never learned about Savannah in any other tours. Plus it was great to get out on the water to beat the heat. I highly recommend this tour!

Highly recommend this tour. Ms. Pat was brilliant; the tour was insightful and authentic. Learned a lot. Don't miss out on this opportunity to learn about our journey.

We had the best time on this bus tour. Lieutenant Dan was our guide..and he was fantastic!! We learned so much about the city! Everyone should ask for him.. and take this tour! The best part is.. after the tour, the trolley becomes a shuttle! You can be dropped off and picked up at several different stops for the rest of the day!

I took the trolly and boat tour. I thought I received exceptionally good value. I enjoyed it very much.

Thoroughly enjoyed this tour. It's a great value. Learned so much and was sorry we didn't have more time to go back to explore some of the areas the guide pointed out. The ticket includes the option to request a shuttle to any one of 11 stops for the rest of that day and the next day - all part of the tour fee.

Dennis is incredibly knowledgeable, friendly and has a great sense of humor. I think the tour is just the right amount of time. I’d highly recommend anyone visiting Savannah take this tour (and try to get Dennis as your tour guide).

I’ve done a ton of ghost tours/experiences/etc. everywhere from St. Augustine to Salem, but this was a totally unique experience! The trolley tour was super fun and informative and the tour guide was incredibly knowledgeable. The interactive performance was PHENOMENAL! It was the perfect blend of scary, historical, and interactive! The actors are incredibly talented. We thoroughly enjoyed it and would recommend it to anyone looking for a quality ghost tour plus some extra scary fun!

Andy was amazing with his knowledge of the area! All of the drivers were very helpful and accommodating! We couldn’t have enjoyed ourselves nearly as much without the tour buses being available to us. Great value for the money!

Brenda with Kelly Tours did an amazing job providing history (and air conditioning) throughout our tour. She was extremely thorough, knowledgable and kept the tour at a very even pace. As a Georgia native, I learned so much. Highly recommend!!
