Golf:
There are several golf courses within 5 mins away.
We have tried them and they are great...
Lemon Bay is wonderful in the afternoon for the sea breeze!
Rotonda has several golf courses. Good afternoon rates including buggy and young people under 16 go free on some courses.
We can pre-book for you
Gasparilla Island:
Luxury.. Heaven... Spot the other people on the beach.... Small toll to go over bridge. Some small shops and people get around on golf buggies can be seen driving around. Spot the large lizards sunbathing along the road and beautiful large shells on the beach.
