What will you be doing? Here is our "Top 5 Things To Do"!
- Sanibel's Independence Day parade is a great family-fun event! I remember visiting Sanibel & Captiva as a child and always starting our July 4th waking up early to drop by Baileys Grocery to pick up some watermelon, and then head out to Periwinkle Way, setting up camp near what is now the Island Cow. We watched the local businesses show their 4th of July spirit as they threw out candy and other goodies. (Keep in mind you may get wet, they sure love their water guns.) The parade begins at Bailey's General Store and ends at Jerry's Foods along Periwinkle Way. The parade starts at 9:30 a.m. but the road will close about 8:45 a.m.
- Bailey's General Store & Jerry's Foods offer food, drinks, live music, prizes, water slides and activities for children and adults! (Donations are accepted and fund various non-profits around the island. ) Stop by and join in on the fun!
On this holiday getting out on the water is a blast!
- The Sealife Encounter Excursion is a trip for all ages and offers a unique, hands-on learning adventure! Cruise out to Picnic Island and wade into the water with scoop nets and our Marine Biologist as we get an up-close encounter with seahorses, starfish, and pufferfish! Departs at 12:30 p.m.
- The Afternoon Dolphin & Wildlife Cruise is a laid back 1 1/2hr boat cruise through the waters of Sanibel and Pine Island. See dolphins, birds and possibly even a manatee or two; good simple fun! Departs at 3:30 p.m.
- Watch the Sanibel Island Fireworks from the water on our Fireworks Cruise! Each year, Sanibel Island puts on an awe-inspiring fireworks performance. The dazzling explosions shine on the Sanibel waters as hundreds of hypnotized Islanders stare upward at the red white and blue. A great way to see the sunset, dolphins, AND the Sanibel fireworks! Departs at 7:30 p.m.
