Day 1: Arrival & Intention-Setting

Gate Arrival

Fly into Savannah/Hilton Head International Airport, then enjoy a peaceful drive or shuttle to Tybee Island, which is only 45 minutes away. The coastal views along the way will set the tone for the remainder of this much-needed respite.

Check-In

Choose a quiet rental from Mermaid Cottages, Tybee Cottages, The Cottage Collection, The Georgianne or Tybee Joy Vacation Rentals. Look for ocean views, garden patios, private pools and easy beach access for reflection space.

Afternoon

Stroll peacefully on North Beach barefoot, then hop over to visit Tybee Island Marine Science Center to connect with the coastal ecosystem. Grab a smoothie at Tybean or lunch with outdoor seating at North Beach Bar & Grill or Rock House before journaling by the waves on South Beach as you indulge in a midday cocktail from Fannies on the Beach.

Evening

Book a sunset dolphin tour with Captain Derek or take yourself on a mindful walk along Mid Beach. For dinner, try Pier 16 or The Deck (dine in the dunes!) —both perfect for a solo dinner with a view.

Evening

Take time to recharge with a quiet afternoon nap or a journaling session by the shore, then wind down with a peaceful dinner at Sting Ray’s—or switch it up with a vibrant evening at Zunzibar. Reflect on the beauty of your own company.

Day 3: Soulful Sendoff

Morning

Take a sunrise beach walk and savor your final morning. Visit a local shop for a small souvenir or inspirational book, then relax at the Tybee Pier.

Afternoon

All packed and ride booked? Before checkout, have one last light lunch or iced coffee on your breezy patio. Whether you linger longer or leave quickly, you'll carry the calm of Tybee Island with you.

Balance your beach bliss with a creative city escape in Savannah. It's the best of both worlds.

Whether you're seeking space to reflect, recharge or simply breathe, Tybee Island offers the ideal setting for a solo micro-cation. From sunrise meditations to shoreline strolls, this coastal retreat was made for meaningful stillness—no matter how short the stay.
