Big Mouth Fun at Boca Grande Vacation Rentals

Boca Grande translates into “Big Mouth” from Spanish. The reference is to the large opening of the waterway called Boca Grande Pass. This pass is at the southern tip of the island where many ships will sail in. The waters there are deeper. You can still see ships come in when you stay at Boca Grande vacation rentals, though processed phosphate from the Bone Valley may not be what is shipped today. Shipping near the Boca Grande condos is not what it used to be. Tampa Bay does most of the work now.
