FIND BLISS ON FLORIDA’S GULF COAST ISLANDS
Sometimes you just want to get away from it all and pick up the slow pace on an island where the living is casual and peaceful. Florida’s Gulf Coast islands offer the perfect retreat. With a tropical climate, lovely white-sand beaches and unspoiled parks, these islands capture
the essential elements of a truly relaxing vacation.
The sun shines year round on the islands of Marco, Sanibel and Captiva, situated near the Florida Everglades o the coast of Naples and Fort Myers. Visitors to all three of these islands can expect to find a variety of accommodations and restaurants to choose from, as well as plenty of sun sports to enjoy.

Marco Island’s distinguishing feature is its lush tropical foliage. More than 200 species of birds, including the American Bald Eagle, are found on Marco Island, providing excellent opportunities for bird watching. Other popular outdoor activities
include fishing, shelling, snorkeling, windsurfing, kayaking and canoeing. And certainly the entire family will enjoy the
90-minute boat trip into the Everglades to investigate a remote manatee hideout.
Collier Seminole State Park, just a few miles from the island, has camping, canoeing, fishing, boating, picnic grounds, and a mile-long nature walk.
Narrated boat tours of the park run on a daily basis. Briggs Nature Center features a half-mile boardwalk where visitors can observe wildlife in its natural habitat. Also available: narrated boat trips, shelling excursions, and canoe trips.
SANiBEl iSlAND & CAPTiVA iSlAND
Sanibel Island and its smaller sister island, Captiva, also present many opportunities to enjoy the great
outdoors, with exceptional fishing, miles of bike paths, tennis and golfing. Explore the waterways by boat and watch frolicking dolphins, graceful blue herons, inquisitive raccoons and colorful birds of all species.
These islands are also world-renowned for their abundance of pastel-colored seashells. What fun to go shelling along the surf and beaches of Sanibel and Captiva, unique in that they lie east and west, different than most islands which lie north and south. This direction allows the islands to catch abundant seashells that the Gulf of Mexico brings to its shores. In fact, people from all over the world come to collect and admire the colorful treasures from the sea.
