Jun 27, 2025 · Google ReviewAdmission is included with the entrance fee for the Lighthouse. Museum is small and has limited artifacts. Doesn’t take too long to go through it. The price was right. Follow us @WanderingParents
Mar 30, 2025 · Google ReviewGreat Experience at Tybee Island Light Station & Museum!!! August 2024 My wife and I recently visited the Tybee Island Light Station & Museum from our riverfront hotel in downtown Savannah, Georgia. The drive was a pleasant and quick 25-minute journey. Upon arrival, we were greeted by a friendly guard at the parking lot entrance, who directed us to get our tickets. On-site parking is conveniently located at the base of the lighthouse, allowing visitors to park for approximately two hours. Our visit also included a tour of the museum and the original guard houses at the base of the lighthouse. Each house took about 30 minutes to explore and provided interesting historical insights. We were fortunate to meet Don, a helpful and knowledgeable gentleman at the museum. Don gave us a brief, five-minute private tour, explaining the workings of the artillery and how ammunition was brought in through the gates at the front of the museum. His enthusiasm and expertise added a special touch to our visit. While we didn't get a chance to visit the beach this time, it's definitely on our to-do list for our next trip. We recommend street parking or using the nearby beach parking lot for a more extended visit.
