Sanibel Island - April 2019
Verdict on the Sanibel trip: basically, the west coast is just very different from the east coast. There's not much more to it than that. It's nice and it has a lot of little places to visit, a lot of local restaurants. It has a very beachy feel - you can be in flip flops and a hat, riding your bike all day long. It's relaxing. The beaches are long and quite and have the "good/real" sand that's soft and doesn't burn your feet. HOWEVER, you're not going to be able to get away from the bugs, especially the no-see-um. It's impossible. The island has a huge preserve and it's surrounded by mangroves. Just take the bug spray and you'll be fine. Local restaurants sell natural bug spray and some even have sprays just for the no-see-um, it's a thing out there. Would I go again, yes, but with more bug spray next time :).
