Sanibel Island & Captiva Island

Florida beaches are known worldwide as being some of the most beautiful, and Sanibel and Captiva Island are no exception.
On Sanibel, relax in a tropical atmosphere amid the palm trees and miles of sand. With so much to do, two of the best ways to see everything on Sanibel is by renting a bike for touring on land and a boat for the water. Enjoy the sporting activities at the Beachview Golf & Tennis Club or go shelling along the beach; the best time for shelling is from May through September. Visit the Bailey-Matthews Shell Museum and don’t miss the Ding Darling National Wildlife Refuge.
On Captiva Island, vacationers will find many quality resorts and hotels available, miles of beach, and just about unlimited sunshine. While staying here, book a tour with Captiva Cruises to get an up-close view of the area and maybe see dolphins. As on Sanibel, shelling is a favorite pastime, as both areas are known for the large number of shells that are washed ashore each day.
