(South Beach, Tybee Island, GA)

Scooter’s 876th bar, first visited in 2011.

Basic hotel bar with a great view of the beach. The food (served for the restaurant upstairs from the bar) is good though pricey. The bar is only open until 11pm.

Tybee Time Sports Bar

(South Beach, Tybee Island, GA)

Scooter’s 874th bar, first visited in 2011.

What a fun place! This is a sports bar where locals and tourists mix. It specializes in frozen drinks, with multiple flavors of daiquiris to choose from.

We chatted with a couple of tourists visiting from inland Georgia and got lost in conversation with them. Our bartender also turned out to have been one of the customers we met at another bar earlier in the day.

Spanky’s Beachside

(South Beach, Tybee Island, GA)

Scooter’s 873rd bar, first visited in 2011.

Spanky’s also seemed more tourist oriented than the bars we visited earlier in the day. It’s a seafood restaurant in the front, with a U-shaped bar in the back. The upper level has both indoor and outdoor seating and a stage for live music.

Fannie’s on the Beach

(South Beach, Tybee Island, GA)

Scooter’s 872nd bar, first visited in 2011.

Up until this point, the bars I had visited on Tybee seemed more for the locals. Fannie’s, however, seemed more touristy.

It’s really more of a restaurant/diner than a bar, and is very food-oriented. However there’s about a half dozen stools at a very small bar. The barstools are actually prety cool, they are what appear to me motorcycle seats mounted on pistons that gently sink into position when you sit on them.

The decor here is pretty entertaining and was cracking me up.
