Visitors to Tybee Island during the second month of the year can anticipate mild temperatures generally ranging from the mid-40s to the low 60s Fahrenheit. Rainfall is possible, though typically less frequent than in other seasons. Ocean temperatures remain cool, generally unsuitable for extended swimming for most individuals. These conditions create a specific climate profile distinct from the hotter summer months or colder winter periods.
This period offers a unique opportunity to experience the island’s charm with fewer crowds and lower accommodation rates compared to peak season. The temperate climate is conducive to outdoor activities like hiking, biking, and exploring the island’s historical sites, including the Tybee Island Light Station and Museum, or Fort Pulaski National Monument. Historically, this time of year has marked a transition period between the winter dormancy and the burgeoning activity of the spring and summer seasons.
