Where to Find Florida’s Best Beaches? Try These Five Island

For Shell Collectors: Sanibel Island

A 40-minute drive from Fort Myers, Sanibel is a lush, laid-back place with pretty, shell-strewn beaches and gentle surf that’s often punctuated by leaping dolphins. Visitors come for a window of welcome idleness, happily interrupted by little more than swimming (Tarpon Bay Beach is the star of the local strands) and beachcombing (Turner Beach is best for shelling; the prime times of the day are the hours before and after low tide).

Sanibel offers 22 miles of paved bike paths, so the best way to get around is on two-wheels. Some hotels, including the Island Inn (see below) rent bicycles to guests. Otherwise, book your wheels at least five days in advance at Billy’s Rentals.

Staying There: The friendly, well-run Island Inn features spacious and very comfortable beachfront rooms that don’t break the bank (from about $280 a night). Alternatively, you can rent a luxury condo through Kingfisher Vacations (from about $180 a night).

Eating There: Book a table at Sweet Melissa’s Cafe well in advance—the new American cooking is excellent. Head for the Clam Shack, owned by a couple from Rhode Island, for outstanding fried clams and lobster rolls.
