It’s time for the sun and the sand and a drink in your hand—Tybee Island has got you covered. Plenty of great restaurants offer cocktails worthy of beach sunsets, from traditional to the unusual. Be sure to try these cocktails to really kick your summer off right.
No beach vacation is complete without a great Mai Tai. The Deck Beachbar and Kitchen follows the Trader Vic protocol for making theirs (Trader Vic’s invented the beloved Island drink). Needless to say, you have to come to have one of these tropical drinks.
The Crab Shack is well known for their piles of crab legs and live baby alligators in the lagoon. But customers also keep coming back for the smooth margarita served in a monkey face coconut. Who could resist?
Nothing pairs with the conch fritters at Aj’s Dockside Restaurant quite like an ice-cold rum punch with Bacardi, Myers Dark Rum, coconut rum, grenadine, and orange and pineapple juice. Enough said.
Stingray’s has perfectly steamed seafood and a killer (no pun intended) Venom Tea. The concoction is robust yet heavenly and will add a kick to your meal.
Spanky’s Beachside has mastered the Pina Colada, and a slew of other drinks. However the pineapple coconut concoction is a summer staple, so bottoms up!
