lissfully removed from the crowds of mainland Florida, Charlotte Harbor is the perfect
sanctuary to spot dolphins, sea turtles, ospreys, and manatees. Take a kayak or paddle
board excursion along the beach, bayou or through nearby mangrove tunnels. Boaters may
come ashore and dock their vessels at our full-service Certified-Green Inn Marina. Novice
and avid fishermen alike will love the thrill of chasing snook, grouper and tarpon at this
world-class fishing destination.
For those seeking adventure, an airboat or seaplane tour will give you a whole new perspective
as you catch breathtaking views of Boca Grande and the surrounding barrier islands.
Back on land, bike or hike the charming island path through the village of Boca Grande to
the historic lighthouse and museum. Collect seashells and memories as you stroll the white
sand beaches at sunset.
