Crab Shack, Tybee Island, Georgia

When I read that the Crab Shack on Tybee Island had live gators that YOU COULD FEED, it became a "must stop" on our road trip.

We actually had some old friends that ended up meeting us here.  Luckily, they had a couple of young daughters who were super excited about feeding gators!

The gators are small, and they are in a nice fenced in area with a pond.  They seemed calm and cool in general, but once tourist started feeding them, they did perk up!


You could buy food pellets at the gift shop or from a server.  They were 4 for $3.  Around the gator area, there are fishing pole like sticks, with a small clip at the end of the rope instead of a hook.  You put your pellet on the end of the rope in the clip, then you cast your line out gently!

Like I said, the gators have been through this before.  They know when the food is coming over, and they start to get excited.  After a big chomp, they get their pellet!  I really enjoyed watching the gators getting their food.


Before we enjoyed feeding gators, we enjoyed some great food here ourselves.  I know places with a gimmick can sometimes have less than average food.  NOT HERE.  We had GREAT meals.

We all really enjoyed what we had.  I was actually looking forward to some shrimp, but the Crab Shack had some interesting looking lunch deals.  For $9 I had some amazing Brunswick stew and a very nice BBQ pork sandwich.  This was a great value, and it was quality food.  We were very impressed.

The Crab Shack is a "MUST SEE" attraction on Tybee Island.
