That seems to describe where Florida's Gulf Coast stands in the National
Geographic Traveler 'best tourism sites in the world' survey. Better luck
next year Nobby......................yeah, right!

Don, you're absolutely right. There is nothing in SWFL that would
appeal to any right thinking tourist (or left thinking either). Stay
home. Do not drive to Ft Myers Beach or Sanibel Island under any
circumstance; the sun and tropical water is unsafe for northeners
unless they have purchased a home here. It would be much better to
take a winter vacation in Nova Scotia or the Cape Breton Islands,
especially given the long window of opportunity afforded by the
weather.

For the more'delicate' traveller..we recommend a summer visit.

We like to keep that quiet. I'll guarantee you pleasant weather from May
till October.
(hope you don't mind a little rain)

Spent a week on Sanibel Island with my family. What a great place. We will
get back there someday.

===============================

Yes, it is a great place for sure. It's kind of in my boating "back
yard" these days. It's takes us about 35 minutes to get there
depending on exactly which manatee speed zones are in effect on any
given day. Just north of there is Captiva Island, Redfish Pass, North
Captiva, Cabbage Key and Useppa Island. North Captiva, Cabbage Key
and Useppa can only be reached by boat, and are all great spots as
well.

Don wouldn't be happy here however since it's not on his list of
recommended places. :-)
