Polar Plunge

An annual treat to bring in a New Year right!  Meet at the base of the Pier & Pavilion to jump into the ocean with thousands of your closest friends.  Costumes are encouraged! Please check out www.tybeepolarplunge.com for more information and to sign up.  This year will be the first attempt to break the “Largest Gathering of People Wearing Swim Caps” record on Tybee!  The wearing begins at 11:45am and must last at least 10 minutes.
