Polk Street, also known as "Back of the Island", is a flat water spot on the west side of Tybee Island, facing the Back River and marshes. This protected spot offers ideal flat water conditions, as an alternative to the ocean spots on the east side. Vast tidal mud flats are exposed at low tide, creating a unique coastal marsh landscape. Perfect in west winds that make the ocean spots unrideable. One of the best flat water spots in the Savannah area.
Protected tidal creek flat water. Excellent conditions for freestyle and foil. Very shallow at low tide. Rideable mainly at mid to high tide. Muddy and sandy bottom. Calm and flat water, rarely choppy. Warmer than the ocean in summer.
Intermediate
Open all year round
Sharp oysters and shells — water shoes essential. Tidal currents in creeks. Difficult mud flats at low tide. Stingrays in shallow waters — shuffle feet when walking. Protected marsh areas to respect.
