Get the Most Out of Skyline Drive in Shenandoah National Park

I’ve heard the glories of Skyline Drive at Shenandoah National Park, Virginia, for years. Angie’s family would visit as a family vacation more or less every year and she knew the park inside and out. But I had never had the chance to visit this one until only recently.

While I knew a fair bit of what to expect when touring this park, there are a number of things you need to know before you go well beyond bracing yourself for the park’s entrance fee ($30 per car during my visit in 2021)!

In this one, I wanted to share a few of my favorite tips to help you get the most out of your visit.

Kayaking Tybee Island with Sea Kayak Georgia is a Must

On our trip to Tybee Island, we knew we wanted to find a way to get out on the water either in a kayak, standup paddleboard, or even a boat. It didn’t take long until we stumbled upon Sea Kayak Georiga and saw an array of tour options available (many to Little Tybee Island) and we signed up right away. 

But, as it turns out, the tides around Tybee Island are quite significant and influence a lot about the water activities you can enjoy here- specifically around when you are able to go out on the water to begin with.

For us, this meant a morning tour, and we set our alarm for an early wake-up to enjoy this one!
