Lots to do just minutes away:
For convenience, less than a mile away (within a 15 minute walk and a 5 minute bike) you will find Bailey's grocery store, shopping, restaurants, the island's movie theater, bicycle rentals and canoe/kayak rentals. Also minutes away by car is live theater, golfing, deep-sea fishing, pier-fishing, scuba diving and much, much more!
J.N. 'Ding' Darling National Wildlife Refuge:
A visit to Sanibel Island wouldn't be complete without a visit to the world famous J.N. 'Ding' Darling Wildlife Refuge and Bird Sanctuary, with its many trails and incredible sights. The main sanctuary is a 10 minute drive away, and a secondary site is a few minutes walk away!
Great for biking, jogging, walking and shelling:
Sanibel's beautiful shell-covered beaches can occupy you for hours while you search for that perfect shell.
In addition, the island's extensive paved paths make walking, jogging and biking an easy, safe and fun way to get around the island.
