See our BIRDS

Visit the Aviary at The Original Crab Shack, one of the most charming and family-friendly attractions on Tybee Island, Georgia. Located directly next to our gift shop, the aviary is home to a collection of rescued and adopted birds who have been part of the Crab Shack family for many years. Every bird in our aviary has a story. These birds were rescued and lovingly adopted, creating a safe and engaging environment where guests can observe them up close while learning about their care and personalities.

Our very first bird, Otis, is a longtime favorite and is known for being especially vocal—so be sure to stop by and say hello. The aviary is a favorite stop for families, children, and visitors looking for unique things to do on Tybee Island. It pairs perfectly with a visit to our gift shop, gator lagoon, and waterfront dining along Chimney Creek, making it a must-see experience during your visit to The Original Crab Shack. Often imitated but never duplicated, The Original Crab Shack offers unforgettable experiences beyond the table—where the elite eat in their bare feet and memories are made every day.
