Lighthouse Beach and Fishing Pier

Classic Sanibel Island Beach


Family Time Must See

Address: Phone:
1 Periwinkle Way
Sanibel Island, FL 33957
+1 239 472 6477

Description

Constructed in 1884, the Sanibel Lighthouse is the most photographed landmark on the island, and is still functional after more than a hundred years. A boardwalk traverses the natural wetlands to the beach, which wraps around the eastern tip of the island and gives both Gulf side and bay side views. Don't forget to bring your fishing poles because the beach also has a classic T-dock fishing pier. To get to the beach and lighthouse, turn left on Periwinkle Way from Causeway Road.
