Of the 100 barrier islands that make up Florida's Lee County, Sanibel and Captiva
are best known. Connected to the mainland by a dazzling three-mile-long scenic
drive across a causeway from the mainland, Sanibel is known world-wide for its
shelling and the associated posture referred to as the "Sanibel Stoop."
More than 200 varieties of shells litter the beaches, particularly after an
especially high or low tide. The annual Shell Fair is attended by
thousands of visitors from throughout the world. For most visitors,
however, shelling is a delightful excuse to enjoy hours of sun-worshipping along
some of the most beautiful shoreline in North America and to absorb the
unspoiled island atmosphere the natives work so earnestly to maintain.
