Beach at Caya Costa

 
 

We drove from Sanibel to Pine Island, about a 90 minute drive, and then took a ferry to Caya Costa, an uninhabited island that is a state park. It is a lovely place and I would like to camp there sometime. They have little houses so you do not have to use a tent and are up off the sand. The beach is beautiful and largely deserted. It is a prime place for sand dollars, although we did not find many there this time. The wind was too high and the water too rough to spend much time in.You can see from the sky that the clouds were menacing. we spent about 4 hours here and then went back on the ferry.
