Just chilling with a pelican at Sanibel Island

[mbizzle]

Sanibel Island is probably one of the greatest beaches in the country. I love to travel there with my family and spend the days shelling, swimming and enjoying the wildlife. We do not live too far from there, so this is a journey that we make quite often. Getting to the island is easy and there is always parking to be found if you get there early enough. Once you are there, finding a spot to set up is key and then following the shelling rules of the area is something to always keep in mind. While this is a shelling capital, you need to be mindful to not be taking live shells. Also, be aware of the other things in the ocean, potentially sharks and stingrays. Of course don't let yourself be fearful and have fun on this amazing beach!
