Tybee or Jekyll?
 
Never been there before but I'm planning a few days in Savannah in January or February.
Also thinking of a night or two on Tybee or Jekyll. Welcoming opinions on those islands. Thanks.

If it was a warmer month I would push for Jekyll. It is georgeous. I love the hammock of old growth trees and Spanish moss.

That being said January and February could be too cold to spend the majority of your time outdoors. Jekyll has a small museum and a nice historic section but it has few shops and other entertainment. You could go to St. Simons if you need more entertainment options.

Thanks for your help. I hadn't thought of St. Simons.

Having been to both Tybee and Jekyll, I would definitely pick Jekyll. Was not at all impressed with Tybee, and the parking on Tybee was ridiculous. Cannot comment on St. Simons have never been there.

Tybee isn't that nice...so go to Jekyll.

Jekyll.
And it can be very warm there during those months too

Looks like Jekyll is the better choice. Thanks one and all!
