Tybee Island Light Station and Museum

The Tybee Island Light Station, Georgia’s oldest and tallest lighthouse, has been a beacon guiding ships into the Savannah River since its construction. Located on Tybee Island, the site includes the historic lighthouse and a museum that showcases artifacts, documents, and photographs, providing insight into its rich history. Visitors can ascend the 178 steps to the top of the lighthouse, where a catwalk offers panoramic views of the beach and shoreline. The light station stands as a testament to maritime navigation and local heritage.
