  • BOTL UPCOMING MAINTENANCE

    Hi Everyone, as mentioned in my introduction post, BOTL needs quite a bit of updating, patching and whatever else I might come across. Over the next few weekends BOTL may be unreachable on occasion as I do migrations or updates, etc. Just be patient - we'll be back! I'll generally try to keep these maintenances until later in the evenings.

Georgia BOTL'ers!

I will be on a family vacation to Tybee Island July 3rd thru the 10th and was wondering what I might be able to get into as it relates to cigars shops and cigar friendly establishments.

I also plan on making several trips into Savannah during the vacation. My S-I-L also smokes cigars, I was also hoping maybe a meet-up if anyone was close.

Any suggestions/ideas would be greatly appreciated!

I was hoping to see someone with a little more knowledge of the area step up but I'll take a stab. Tybee is a great little island. I went there a lot throughout college. You can always count on a nice day at the beach and a delicious seafood meal and cigar to cap the night. Make sure you bring your own cigars though. I haven't seen any cigar shops worth buying anything at. Hopefully you can prove me wrong. You shouldn't have a problem finding a beach front seafood restaurant/bar with a porch/balcony. Marlyn Monroes is one. There are others on the main strip near the pier. For the best seafood on the island check out The Crab Shack. It isn't near the main beaches. You'll see a sign on the right once you get on the island. Nothing like fried gator! If you're in to the Civil War, Fort Pulaski is worth checking out.
Every time we went to Tybee, we had to spend some time in Savannah. My sister recently moved there so I should be getting an excuse to get back down there! For cigars, try Bogart's Classic Cigar Parlor at 405 W. Congress St. I can't personally vouch for it, but it's all I got. I have been to a couple myself and like the ones on Tybee, I wasn't too impressed with the selection. What they did have was over priced. Hopefully you can fill ME in. Howeverm for great food and beer, go to Moon River on Bay St. Get their Swampfox IPA and you wont be disappointed. Mexican dinner with 5 people, wait for the balcony at Lizzy's on River st. Hope this helped a little

Have a great trip Larry

North Shore Grill was one of my favorite restaurants on Tybee for a while. Live music, great food, nice patio on the beach. Unfortunately, they closed down last year.

You on Twitter Larry? There's a BOTL on there that goes by mango2kw and he's from Savannah. If not let me know and I'll hit him up for some tips.
