Tybee Island, Savannah

oddly, here low tide seems to have better skim, and the beach is not as flat then either, so you can get out onto the water better then. Most of the time the waves break close to shore , regardless of the tides. at high tide there is plenty of flat beach to skim and work on your 360's etc. If you surf too, you will never get bored here, trust me. The crowds aren't too bad, sometime little kids like to stand where the good skim is, but when they see us riding toward them ,they most often move. This is a very large tourist community, and parking during the season is hard to find, but this place is good for skim all year round, if you have a wetsuit it doesn't get too bad (cold).

Simply go to Savannah, via I-95 and I-16 or otherwise, Find Abercorn Street , then find HWY 80 east and follow it until the end , probably about 20 miles, and you'll know when you get there. If you get lost, just ask, most of the people around here are very nice... this is the south after all.

Cumberland Island Beach

I have skimmed at Cumberland Island a few times. It is not a surf spot because the waves are tiny. This makes the place perfect for skimming in the foam of where the tides come up. It is one of my favorites.  

Drive to Cumberland Island, Ga. Ask a guide where the beach is and skim!
