Certain things make every checklist when planning a vacation. From choosing your dates to reserving your Tybee Beach Vacation Rentals home, the prep work leading up to your Georgia is pretty standard. However, there are other things to consider when you arrive. Something that can often be overlooked is where to find parking on Tybee Island in relation to top attractions.
What Is a Pay-to-Park Community?
You’ll quickly realize that, unlike other communities, Tybee Island does not offer free public parking. The parking fees collected are used to preserve and keep services in working order. This includes keeping beaches safe and clean, providing police patrol and lifeguards for beaches, and providing mats that allow those with handicaps to access the beach.
Most parking spots operate by Pay-&-Display stations, or you can use the Park TYB app. If using the pay stations, display your printed receipt on your vehicle’s dash.
Where to Park on Tybee Island?
If you’re loaded down with gear for a day at the beach or planning to do a bit of shopping, chances are you’ll want your vehicle with you. There are several parking locations throughout the island, but we’ve compiled a list of the three most popular options and what you can find near them.
- There are beachfront lots between 14th and 18th streets, adjacent to the Walter Parker Pier Pavilion and main beach business district, making them a great option for those looking to explore the shops in the area.
- If you’re looking to visit the Tybee Island Lighthouse, head to the North Peach Parking Lot, a beachfront lot in Fort Screven found immediately across from the historic landmark.
- Those visiting with their four-legged friends will enjoy the convenience of the lots found on Van Horne and Fort streets. These spots are close to both dog parks and are only a short walk to the North Beach area or river beaches.
More spaces are found throughout the business corridor, so you can always find parking near your chosen adventure. For a complete look at where to find parking, take a look at the map put together by the City of Tybee Island.
