Description: Part of the same chain of barrier islands as the popular Captiva and Sanibel Islands, Little Gasparilla Island boasts some of the quietest and most beautiful beaches around. A five minute ferry ride from Palm Island Marina brings you to the island, where you can swim, dive, snorkel and shell-hunt to your heart’s content. The island boasts excellent snook and tarpon fishing, and with birds like bald eagles, great white herons and rare white pelicans calling it home, some pretty good bird-watching as well. Be sure to pack plenty of your own goods for oceanside picnics, as provisions are hard to come by on this small island paradise.
