Hurricane season on Sanibel
Today marks the start of Hurricane season. Make sure to be prepared as you never know. This is a never before seen video from 2004 about an hour after Hurricane Charley passed over Sanibel Island. It really shows the destruction that can occur. Unfortunately HD was not around back then so not crystal clear like […]

Otters can regularly be spotted down Dixie beach blvd or in Dinkens and Clam Bayous on Sanibel. This one was looking for a handout from a fisherman of Sanibel Captiva rd

Kayaking Sanibel
What a beautiful couple weeks we have had on Sanibel. All traces of red tide along Florida’s gulf side are now completely gone.

A walk to Sanibel Islands Cemetery
With the free beach parking that Sanibel has in effect right now we decided to take full advantage and parked at Gulf side City Park (Algiers Beach) where our A permit does not work as this beach is a C permit or cash only Sanibel Beach. It was like a walk through history and there […]
