Tybee Island Paddling




In the prologue of Sweetwater Creek by Anne Rivers Siddons there is a description of a "savage and beautiful ballet" that occurs in the low country tidal rivers and creeks. During neap tides dolphin use these low tides to herd mullet onto the banks. Our first naive observation of this noisy ritual was that something was terribly wrong. We were stunned by the sights and sounds. It was amazing to be in the center of this bi-annual rite of passage.
