Lighthouse Beach Park

For all you husbands out there who go to the beach with their wives, this is the beach for you and me! The parking lot was not real big but it was very close to the beach. 😁 The sand was nice the shells were pretty and did I mention how close the parking was( free if you have a handicap plate) the water was clear and the beach not crowded on a Sunday. The lighthouse was pretty neat. It’s worth the 6 bucks to cross the bridge.

LOVED Lighthouse beach on Sanibel! The highlight was the many dolphins playing close to shore. Although parking is limited, I plan to arrive early! There isn't anywhere to park close by either unless you plan on walking.

Went on a Wednesday, not too packed. Ocean water was pretty dirty due to hurricane damage awhile ago from what I read, but the beach was nice and we found lots of shells. Paid 20$ for 4 hrs of parking. Bathrooms are nice and has an area to rinse your sandy body off!

This place really took a beating during Hurricane Ian and now Helene and Milton. But it’s still a beautiful place and they did everything they could for a quick recovery. It will never be the same but it’s still absolutely beautiful. Keep in mind there’s still construction going on. Parking seems a bit pricey but it’s worth it. There are also restrooms and showers at the parking lot. This beach is the best one for shelling, that’s for sure!

We were looking to do some shelling. Sanibel Island is on several lists recommending it. We stopped at the lighthouse beach. We had a great time. Not too hot, the water was nice.

Amazing place to visit on Sanibel Island. Rich with history and turquoise waters, gentle breezes, sugar sand and lots of sea shells.

If you look closely at the video, you will notice a dolphin in the water. It was around for about 30 minutes for us to capture some video while at the beach. Overall beautiful beach, no life guard. Be sure to pay for parking if you aren't a local it was only 5 and hour. Which is a great rate!! If you aren't a beach goer, be sure to bring everything you'll need as there aren't any little spots to buy anything on the beach.

This is a nice beach. It is clean, has a dressing room/restroom available. The sand is soft and powdery and the views are amazing!
