MacElwee's Seafood Restaurant, Tybee Island

This family-friendly joint is the oldest seafood restaurant on Tybee Island, and one of the favorites among locals and visitors alike. Casual and fun, loyal patrons arrive in Sunday duds, beach clothes or even less. A full range of seafood specialties is available, but the clear house favorite is the beer-battered shrimp. Get your oysters on the half shell raw or steamed, and do not neglect to check out the weekly specials. A full bar is on hand for the adults, and a kids menu provides perfect portions for the little ones.
