What To Expect

Sanibel Island Lighthouse

On our way to Sanibel Island, we’ll cruise past well-known dolphin watching spots, including the waters near Picnic Island. These areas are home to playful dolphins, and sightings in their natural habitat are frequent., often surfacing and swimming nearby, creating unforgettable moments along the journey.Once we arrive at Sanibel, you’ll have the chance to step ashore near the iconic Sanibel Island Lighthouse. It is a beloved landmark with sweeping views of the Gulf waters stretching out into the Gulf. Guests can take a leisurely walk along the sandy shoreline, hunt for shells on beaches famous for their treasures, or capture photos of the lighthouse framed by palm trees and sea oats. Families may enjoy wading in the shallow waters, while couples can find a quiet spot to sit and take in the scenery. With plenty of unhurried time here, you’re free to relax, explore, and soak up the unique atmosphere of this historic island before we set out on our return journey.
