Sailboarding & Surfing |
|
Winter and Summer stormsbring
the sort of waves that surfers
crave, but in general gulf waves
are too wimpy for serious
surfers. However, strong winds
do provide excellent conditions
for sailboarders. The Sanibel
Causeway is the most popular
location for windsurfing. |

Snorkeling & Scuba |

Florida's west coast has no
natural reefs, but several have
been built to provide a home for
marine life. There are nearly 20
of these artificial reefs along
the Sanibel Island coast. The
Edison reef is one of the
largest and was created from the
sinking of a former Fort
Myers bridge. It lies in 42 feet
of water 15 nautical miles off
the Sanibel Lighthouse. The
Belton Johnson Reef lies about 5
nautical miles off Bowman's
Beach on Sanibel. Other popular
sites include the Redfish Pass
Barge which lies in 25 feet of
water less than a nautical mile
from Redfish Pass between
Captiva Island and North Captiva,
and the Don Kline Reef, a
popular spot for tarpon fishing,
this reef is less than 8
nautical miles from the Sanibel
Lighthouse. Cayo Costa State
Island Preserve offers
snorkelers nice ledges alive
with sponges fish and shells in
2 to 5 feet of water. |
