COASTE | TREASURES 6.

Sanibel Cemetery

Did you know that Sanibel has a cemetery? Not many folks do. This hidden treasure is accessible only by bike or on foot, and can be found by following a pathway on the curve before Middle Gulf Drive meets Casa Ybel Road. And if cemeteries are your thing, be sure to visit Captiva, too, where you’ll find another at Chapel by the Sea.

7. The fish shacks in Pine Island Sound are treasures indeed of a bygone era when commercial fishing was a way of life for many in Southwest Florida. The shacks are obviously best viewed by water — but if you’re more adventurous, pull your boat up and explore firsthand a little history, or maybe even drop a line! Fish Shacks

Fishing

Whether you rent a boat, charter a guide, try your luck off a pier or simply cast a line off the beach, fishing is one of our greatest treasures and most popular pasttimes for residents and visitors alike. You’ll need a fishing license, and some good advice on where they’re biting — which can easily be found at the many bait and fishing shops ready to share their knowledge (and probably a story of one that got away).
