Sanibel and Captiva Holidays – Enchanting Florida islands
Holidays on Captiva and Sanibel appeal to young families, couples, older travellers, romantics and all lovers of peaceful, quirky charm. Sanibel and Captiva are two beautiful Florida islands off the southwest Gulf Coast, between Fort Myers and Naples. Sanibel and Captiva combine a charmingly relaxed pace, quality modern accommodation, wildlife and fabulous sandy beaches. Tarpon Bay and Bowman’s Beach are just two of the terrific white sandy beaches on Sanibel and Captiva. Beaches like Lighthouse Beach are a Mecca for shell collectors. While Sanibel holidays are hardly for non-stop partying, you will find enjoyable pubs, charming live bands and an outstanding choice of family restaurants and fine dining. No holiday on Sanibel or Captiva should miss out on a boat trip to tiny “out-islands” like Cayo Costa, North Captiva, Useppa and Pine Island.
Sanibel Holiday – Premier Florida ecotourism destination
Sanibel holidays very much focus on nature and wildlife, with excellent refuges like the J.N. "Ding" Darling National Wildlife Refuge and the C.R.O.W. wildlife rehabilitation centre. Observe reptiles, alligators, crocodiles and over 200 species of birds in wetlands, mangroves, dunes and woodland. All holidays on Sanibel and Captiva should include the fascinating Everglades Day Safari and some dolphin watching. For cheap holidays on Sanibel try accommodation for birdwatchers. Sanibel and Captiva holidays could also include sailing, parasailing, windsurfing, kayaking, fishing, tennis and golf. As well as outdoor recreation, Sanibel and Captiva holidays have a reputation for art, literature and crafts. Sanibel holidays in March will coincide with the island’s classical music festival.
Captiva Holidays – Upmarket romance
Much smaller Captiva Island is connected to Sanibel by bridge. Captiva holidays are decidedly upmarket but share the same relaxed atmosphere. Impressive all-inclusive Captiva holidays centre on exclusive resort hotels with every facility. Sunset cruises, day spas and the romantic luxury setting make Captiva holidays a popular wedding and honeymoon holiday choice. Short easy strolls lead to superb Captiva beaches, which all enjoy fabulously romantic sunsets.
