Things to Consider If You Go to Tybee Island, Georgia for the 4th of July

The 4th of July is right around the corner. Now is the time to start thinking about where you would like to celebrate and enjoy your Independence Day. You may want to consider spending your 4th of July on Tybee Island, Georgia. Last year, my family and I spent our Independence Day on Tybee Island and we had a great time. If you do decide to go to Tybee, here are a few things to consider if going to Tybee Island, Georgia for the 4th of July.

4th of July Fireworks on Tybee Island- Tybee Island has one of the best and biggest fireworks display that I have ever seen. We were staying at the Ocean Plaza Beach Resort, for our yearly summer vacation on Tybee, and we had a room with a balcony on the beach side of the hotel. It was the perfect location to watch the fireworks display. The fireworks were shot off of the end of the beautiful Tybee Island Pier. The fireworks started around 9:30pm and lasted nearly forty-five minutes before it was over. Each explosion produced an even bigger display than the one before it. If you have never seen fireworks reflected by the ocean below then you just don't know what you are missing. They were beauitful and it was hard to tell where the water began and the firework ended. The next night Savannah had their fireworks display and we could see them just by looking over the water to the left of the hotel.

4th of July Festivities on Tybee Island- During the 4th of July celebration, Tybee Island has a wonderfully festive atmosphere about it. On the Tybee Island Pier you will hear local bands playing music, people will be dancing and celebrating and there were numerous vendors set up on the pier

to sale their goods. We saw vendors saling high class sunglass, seashell jewelry and many other beautiful accessories and souveniers. There were even ice cream vendors and the concession stands that sale the alcoholic drinks for us adults (which I don't suggest drinking while it's hot out, trust me). The festivities on Tybee Island, for the 4th of July, could put anyone in the mood for celebrating.
