The city of Sanibel Island, located along the Gulf of America just a short drive from Fort Myers, is justly famed for its sunsets, lighthouse, and luxurious resorts.
For family fun, the most popular activity on Sanibel Island is shelling – you barely can walk a step on the beach without indulging in the so-called "Sanibel Stoop" to search for shells.
But there is so much else to do on Sanibel Island – fine accommodations, fresh seafood, fishing, boating, and just plain relaxation, a chance to get away from the hurly burly, a chance to draw closer to nature.
For outdoor adventures, consider the Ding Darling National Wildlife Refuge, a way station for migratory birds and a home for manatees and dolphins. Or paddle the Calusa Blueway, a featured trail in a network of water routes.

This is part of what makes it a such a great destination for those seeking a romantic or luxury getaway, family vacay, Everglades adventure, or chill beach vibe.
