Let’s Have Some Fun!

Enjoy a hot cup of coffee while sitting on the terrace overlooking a coastline with hues of purples, yellows and oranges quietly melting into the ocean’s tranquil waters. Sound like a bit of paradise? It’s Sanibel Island, a once in a lifetime vacationer’s paradise located off the coast of Florida. Visiting Sanibel Island is the perfect destination for a family vacation, wedding, holiday or spur of the moment getaway. This island retreat lies in a subtropical climate with warm sunshine year round.

Sanibel Island is well known for its shelling on Blind Pass located on the northern tip of the island. The island acts as a “shelf” capturing many of the seashells swept onto its coastline by the Gulf of Mexico’s currents. It is not uncommon to seeing visitors stooping and searching carefully for shells to add to their collections.

Some other outdoor action would include visiting one of the many golf courses that dot Sanibel Island’s landscape. You have your pick of 70 lush green courses complete with spectacular 18 hole golf games. Maybe you would enjoy some of the activity of the many water sports available. Whether you choose fast paced water skiing, kayaking, canoeing or fishing, you will definitely experience a great part of Sanibel Island. Chartering a fishing trip for a small group is a unique way to tour the island. Complete with a captain, this would be a fishing adventure to always remember.

Perhaps you decide to take a land tour and rent a bicycle to ride through Sanibel’s 25 miles of biking paths sprawled across the island. Be sure to carry a camera in case one of the local wildlife decides to make an appearance. On your bicycle tour, visiting the Sanibel Lighthouse would be a prime stop on the tour. It is one of the oldest structures on the island and is located in a quaint, historical area.

There is plenty of shopping available in the unique shops located along Periwinkle Way. From handmade gifts, souvenirs and clothing items, you are sure to find an item to suit any taste.

Thinking about experiencing the wedding of your dreams? Sanibel Island will allow you to say your “I do’s” barefoot in the sand facing the smiling tropical sunset. Consultants are at your beck and call to assist in planning this unforgettable event.

Visiting Sanibel Island allows you to step into a dreamer’s paradise. From its scenic locale and breathtaking views to its fast paced activities for the adventurer, this island will please the vacationer seeking a world of fun.
