Ocean Watch

We stayed at the Pelicans Landing # 204 with balcony facing an Alley named Atlantic Ave. The 3 or 4 story building is about 4 years old according to Pat the resident manager and in great shape. It’s about one city block from the beach/​ocean.
The building’s west end is on the main drag, Butler Ave. and another adjacent attached beach rental on the oceanside or East end, another rental is to the north. The rooms at Pelican are very nice with all the amenities anyone would expect from a rental with full kitchen, 2 baths, 3 bedrooms and very nice living room with wood floors and nice balcony for morning coffee. Most of the normal supplies are there to utilize if needed. The walk to the beach takes about 5 minutes or less depending on how much stuff you want to take, including people. We were there with some of our gen-​x kids and our grandson. Of course this was the little ones (2 ½ yrs old) first visit to an ocean and all went well with that experience over about a weeks time. Tybee beach is a nice family beach, and we were there the 3^rd week of May and left just in time to avoid most of the super crush of Memorial Day 2015. But Saturday and Sunday that last weekend the small town filled up for the first big weekend of the season.
The Pelican provides spaces for 2 cars per unit, we only had one. Very close to most tourist shopping and attractions from ice-​cream parlors, restaurants, bars and all kinds of beach and bike rentals. Across Butler Ave. is the Sunrise Café, probably for the locals as well as the tourist with classic traditional American food faire, open until 2:00 in the afternoon. It’s a good deal.
Needless to say in a tourist beach town the closer to a weekend and the summer after schools are out for the year, the atmosphere winds up in the overnight with a younger crowd, but during the day normalcy returns for the not so young and restless. The beach scene is great on Tybee, watching and playing the various tides daily. More than enough beach for any youngsters.
We had any issues taken care of by Pat and whatever crew she summoned for anything that needed fixing or supplied. We got an extra light fixture for the living room, some more beach chairs and paper supplies plus a
