It all started with a simple love for fresh seafood and salty ocean air. The Original Crab Shack on Tybee Island began as a small, family-run spot where locals and travelers alike could gather for hearty crab boils, cold drinks, and warm laughs. Word spread quickly—its laid-back charm, waterfront views, and unforgettable flavors made it a must-visit destination.

 

Over the years, the Shack grew, but it never lost its heart. From tiny beginnings to a bustling hub of seafood lovers, it has remained a place where families connect, friends celebrate, and everyone leaves with a little bit of Tybee magic on their taste buds. Today, the Crab Shack stands as a testament to tradition, community, and the simple joy of cracking open crabs with your hands.
