The undisputed highlight of any holiday in Sanibel is without question the stunning beaches which surround the island. Be-speckled with shells, sponges and driftwood, these beaches offer a unique charm, quite alien to most of its lifeless contemporaries. However, if you can be persuaded to leave the magical beaches Sanibel also offers a splendid array of interesting and engaging activities for all the family to enjoy.
Why not continue the natural theme and visit J. N. 'Ding' Darling National Wildlife Refuge. This is a magnificent day out which can be visited by car, bike or on foot and even by Kayak for the more intrepid explorers. Also worthwhile is a trip to the island's most notable landmark, the Sanibel Lighthouse to the east of the island. However you decide to spend your time you cannot help but feel rejuvenated by the beautiful surroundings of a Sanibel holiday.
The city is situated on a small island surrounded by beaches and covered with Bouganvellia and other brilliantly coloured flowers and shrubs nearly all year long. A truly remarkable place to visit on holiday purely for the wildlife! Whether you want to come on holidays to Sanibel simply to relax or to see the amazing wildlife, which they have gone to great lengths to preserve, you will not be disappointed!
