Departing From The Sanibel Marina on Sanibel Island, FL
Experience the iconic Sanibel Lighthouse from the water.
Whether you want to enjoy a beautiful sunset, or get a glorious daytime view of the historic Sanibel Lighthouse, getting on the water is a great way to change your vantage point of this iconic landmark! You and up to five guests can explore Pine Island Sound for 2 hrs as we cruise down to the Lighthouse. Dolphins are frequently fishing in the same waters we navigate, so there’s always a great chance of seeing either a pod of female and juvenile dolphins or a large male on a solo fish hunt. Not only will you see the Sanibel Lighthouse on this trip, you can also choose between traveling under the Sanibel Causeway to visit a few barrier islands and see some bird rookeries or we can gently cruise from Sanibel Marina down to the Sanibel Lighthouse, taking in the views of the beautiful waterfront homes. If you elect to experience an evening sunset, get ready to watch the bay transform from shades of sparkling blues and greens, to golden yellows, blazing oranges and soft pinks in every direction. You do not need to enter the water for this encounter. Check out the FAQs for additional information. All Encounters have a maximum capacity of 6 people.
Long sleeve jacket or sweatshirt (really? Yes, really!! I know it is Florida, but it can be chilly on the water in the evening)
