Where is Sanibel Island?
Right
off of Florida's sunny southwest coast, Sanibel
Island vacation rentals
are beautiful for relaxing luxurious getaways.
Sanibel Island measures
roughly 12 miles long and 5 miles across at its widest.
Biking is the most intimate way to get to know the island
. 25 miles of paved bike paths take you almost
anywhere you want to go. They meander through shady
tree canopies, across wooden bridges and along quiet
waterways. They also lead to shops, restaurants, points
of interest, wildlife centers and beaches. Many Sanibel
Island Vacation Rentals
have bicycles for guest use, plus there are
numerous public bike rental facilities. Sanibel
Island is known for its soft white sands and
warm translucent water, which makes its beaches magnificent.
There are many activities available on the island
including fishing, tennis, golf, hiking, bicycling,
boating, scuba diving, canoe trips, shelling, water
sports, a wildlife preserve as well as great shopping
and restaurants. The serene environment makes Sanibel
Island the perfect choice for your next vacation.

Of the 100 barrier
islands that make up Florida's Lee County, Sanibel
and its neighbor 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 Sanibel
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 so effortlessly maintain.
Sanibel's
main street is Periwinkle Way, a picturesque,
lush thoroughfare framed by a canopy of Australian pines
and tall, graceful palms. Interesting shops, galleries,
and restaurants dot the road from the Sanibel
Lighthouse to Tarpon Bay Road, making frequent
stops a must. Located toward Sanibel's
northwestern tip, the J. N. "Ding" Darling National
Wildlife Refuge is home to exotic species of birds and
plants. Naturalists and sightseers get opportunities
to witness a variety of wildlife as well, including
the ubiquitous alligator, in their natural
settings. You can drive, bike or hike
through this sanctuary, or take a narrated tour by tram
or canoe. In all, the refuge occupies 5,000 acres, almost
one-third of the island .
More natural beauty can be found across Pine Island
Sound in Pineland.
