Fun at The Bocilla Island Club
We rented a boat for two days from Fourwinds Maria which is just right across the bay from Bocilla. Cabbage Key is just a short ride from Bocilla and is listed as the place where Jimmy Buffet wrote Cheese Burger In Paradise. There are nature trails that make you feel like you’re on Gillian’s Island, a restaurant, ice cream parlor and gift shop. North Captiva is a short ride away and is the perfect place to swim. Unfortunately Barnucke Phil’s is no longer there but hopefully another restaurant will replace them. Fishing was fun, sea trout, catfish, cow fish, grunts, snapper and more are plentiful in Pine Island Sound. A short walk away from Bocilla is a wonderful art museum, I bought another watercolor by David Smih and jewelry from the designer of mcKenzie Child. Captain Cons is a little further down from the museum and has the best homemade pies in Florida, it’s also where people come to watch the Sun set on their dock. Ft Myers Beach was an hour away and made for a fun day at the beach, wave running, swimming and there were many shops to buy gifts and beach appeal Boating in Pine Island Sound was everyone’s favorite, 14, 19, 59, and 61 year olds all had a tremendous time.
