Marine Science Center

"Neat side trip for families"

When you visit Tybee Island Marine Science Center you can view marine life indigenous to Georgia's  coast.

The  exhibits display  avariety of fish, reptiles, invertebrates, corals and other interesting sea creatures. There is also a "touch-tank" with hermit crabs. The gift shop on site had all kind of neat little trinkets for my kids.  Was a small litlle place to visit that we included in a day at the beach.

The science center is located on Tybee Island, near the Tybee Island Pier.
