Sanibel Island

I have been here several times. The place is great especially in October. There aren’t mant tourists and the weather is in the high 80’s. If you are looking for a quiet and relaxing vacation, this is the place but if you are looking for a lot of action, you might not want to go here.

Every summer, my family go to Sanibel Island for a whole week. This place is beautiful! Great place to bike ride and play golf. Great restaurants too!

I love Sanibel Island! I have visited Sanibel Island 3 times in the last 1-1/2 years and will be returning next month in October. I love staying at Oceans Reach Condos. I fall asleep each night to the sound of the water from the Gulf. The shells are amazing and I spend all my days and yes, some nights at low tide with a flashlight, trying to find the ultimate shell for my growing collection. I have also stayed at the ’Tween the Waters resort on Captiva Island but I do prefer the Oceans Reach Condos for my visits.

Sanibel is a great place to unwind, especially if you can rent something right on the beach. Because of the toll to get onto the island, there aren’t as many tourists/crowds. Good shelling. Rent a bike and tour the Ding Darling Wildlife refuge-you might run across an alligator or two. And go to Doc Fords for a Cubano sandwich and a pina colada. Mmmm… yum. The Island Cow also has really good food.

The beaches are lovely, the water is nice, the surroundings are great, and it is not polluted. I had a great time, just make sure you go when the red tide is OUT.
