The Crab Shack is a one-stop-shop for all things seafood. Make sure to order a Captain Crab’s Sampler Platter, a feast piled high with crab legs, shrimp, mussels, crawfish, Georgia shrimp, corn, sausage and potatoes. This Tybee Island staple offers outdoor seating overlooking a tidal creek, a bird menagerie and a gator lagoon. This experience is one you surely won’t forget!
