If you would like to combine Georgia small-town island relaxation with water fun and exercise, do the Outdoor Inn experience at Tybee Island. The Outdoor Inn is an unconventional accomodation experience because it's a large home whose spotless kitchen, comfy living room, dining room and wrap-around porch are shared space. Yet the cute, clean, comfortable bedrooms are individual--and the entire upstairs, or "The Family Suite" sleeps six comfortably with a jacuzzi tub and Georgia Salt Marsh view out back.

Next door, you can rent a kayak and glide through the salt marshes, or schedule a group tour (with a guide) of the salt marsh habitat that includes clever, playful porpoises, birds, and manatees. It's affordable, the house is spotlessly clean and comfortable (reminiscent of the best European youth hostel) and the kayaking experience is awsome.
