From the time you cross the bridge, you’ll spot shops and stores and boutiques and galleries and signs pointing you to all of our treasures. Just make sure you bring your biggest hauler and we can also connect you with lots of ways to ship your cache back home!
Make sure you’re fueled up and ready to shop from north to south. Don’t forget to purchase your Sunrise Restaurant Gift Cards for Christmas. They make the perfect stocking stuffers for the Breakfast-lover in your family.
The buffet is wonderful and we can tell you they have the most incredible corned beef hash. You just simply have to try it!

Shop for adventure while you’re here, too. Get unplugged with Captain Rene and Sundial Charters. Share their love of the Georgia Coast with their wonderful guides and enjoy relaxed and private nature tours, low country boils, fossil hunting, crabbing, picnics, scavenger hunts, birding tours, fishing charters and dolphin cruises.
New York City may have FAO Schwartz, but we’ve got Fish Art Gallerie. Whatever you’re looking for, big or small, chances are you’ll find it here. You’ll also find every incredible phenomenon of art you never thought you’d see!
Don’t forget to stock up on your Beach Bum Biscuits, Mermaid Morning Bliss Coffee, Tee Shirts, candles and more at Seaside Sisters.

Your purchases also help us sponsor puppies to be trained as Guide Dogs and Service Dogs for the disabled, pet rescue and pet foster and our other service projects.

You can even call us to shop for future visits at Mermaid Cottages. We’ll help you select just the right cottage for you and we’ll help you purchase Gift Certificates. Who wouldn’t love to find the gift of Tybee in his or her stocking Christmas morning!
