“The stunning 360-degree views from the top of the historical Tybee Island Lighthouse are well worth the climb, especially during sunrise and sunset. When you get hungry, head to North Beach Bar and Grill, a casual restaurant with a tasty menu and a dog-friendly patio located between the beach and lighthouse.”

To decide who should make the list, Travel & Leisure compared sand quality, wave quality, the amount of shade, seclusion, public transportation, parking and more.
