An A permit parking sticker is only available to residents of Sanibel at a cost of $12.00.   There are some very small lots (3-7 parking spots) throughout the island that are reserved for residents. A general grouping of these is along West Gulf drive. Please make sure you check the signs where you park . If you see the above sign, beware as you will be ticketed for parking there without this permit. Sanibel police are pretty diligent in their enforcing of parking violations. The requirements for obtaining an A permit are listed below.
