Soft sand and shelling awaits you at the meeting of sanibel island with the gulf coast waters. Quiet, laid-back and relaxed. These beaches flow at a serene pace. Gulf waters are warm, calm and relaxing. Get some sunshine and steps in along the beach.

Lovely island ( although some areas are still showing the devastation of Hurricane Ian.) It has several beautiful beaches goodfor shelling and with parking lots, a very cute shopping center with big parrots in the interior garden, it also has many restaurants and shops, galleries, the Sanibel Arts Center, and a great farmer's market next to it that opens on Sundays from October to late May. Highly recommend!

Beautiful beach, very laid back town, lots of people riding bikes, the shells are abundant and it depends on the season you find some more rare ones. The island is still recovering from last year's hurricanes. They're doing a good job rebuilding, and hopefully, in a year or so, everything will be back to normal.

I love, love, love Sanibel Island! If you want to really take a break and want to really unwind stay at Island Inn or if you want more activity, try Tween waters Resort.

Great beaches on the island. We went on a Tuesday afternoon and found up front parking at the beach entrance. Parking is $5/ hr. No problems with paying. Very chill beach with amazing views of the water.

Very scenic, current was strong the day we went not sure if it's always like that or not, checked out the museum it was cool, kids loved it, kids and wife enjoyed shelling but I recommend water shoes because u can't walk barefoot, sea shells r sharp, and flip flops will keep getting knocked off due to currents

Many things are back in business and recovery work is ongoing in some areas. We stayed right on the beach in a newly renovated condo. We had a wonderful experience.
