Of
the 100 coastal islands that make up Florida's Lee County, Sanibel Island
is the 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. For most visitors
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. |
