Select
from many fine lodges for an excellent Sanibel
Island Vacation!
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.
Once
on Sanibel Island, you're just minutes away
from Captiva, which is joined to the island's
northern tip by a tiny bridge over Blind Pass.
The main attraction on Captiva is that there
are none and many visitors wile away the hours
in more laid-back ways: sunning, walking the
beach, fishing and just doing nothing. It
was here that Anne Morrow Lindbergh wrote
her best-selling love letter, "A Gift
From the Sea." She and her famous-aviator
husband were frequent guests on the island.
Although these tiny islands changed in many
ways once the causeway from the mainland was
opened in 1963, they remain among Florida's
most beautiful destinations.
