Collecting Sand Dollars and Seashells on Tigertail Beach - Marco Island, Florida
During our stay at the Naples/Marco Island KOA we took a day trip to Marco Island on a hunt for seashell treasure. We heard that Tigertail beach was the perfect spot to find sand dollars, so we loaded up the kids and our buckets for a day at the beach. Once we crossed the murky lagoon (being careful not to step on snails!) we were on the beach. It was beautiful and full of shells! The kids walked nearly 2 miles down the shoreline in search of the perfect treasures. By the end of the day, our buckets were full with many types of shells.

Marco Island
Located just a short drive south of Naples is the pristine, but casually elegant Marco Island. As the largest and only developed land in Florida's Ten Thousand Islands, Marco Island is 24 square miles and boasts an easy-paced lifestyle with several luxury resorts, beautiful shell-filled beaches, championship golf, and unspoiled wildlife.
Marco was originally home to the Calusa Indians, who paddled their canoes throughout the nearby waterfront areas. In the 1500’s, Spanish conquistadors arrived and named it “San Marco Island.” In 1879, W.T. Collier was credited with the founding of Marco Island and, by the early 1920s, Barron Gift Collier purchased over one million acres of Southwest Florida real estate, including 90% of the Island. However, most of the development didn’t occur until the Mackle Brothers arrived on the scene. In the 60’s, 70’s, and 80’s, they dredged and built thousands of lots, turning it into a modern day paradise with over 100 miles of waterways and six miles of beaches.
Today, residents and visitors enjoy many of the Island’s attractions and activities including boating, fishing, biking, and exploring the nearby Everglades National Park. Local restaurants serve up the best in fresh seafood and island fare. Shopping is also an experience, especially at The Esplanade Shoppes, which offer nearly 50,000 square feet of retail stores and dining, all overlooking the boat docks filled with large yachts on Smokehouse Bay.
If you’re looking to make Marco Island your winter or year-round home, you’ll find residential options that include beach and golf course condominiums, and homes with amenities that cater to the island lifestyle. The majority of single-family homes are waterfront, with a boat dock at the back door. Most of the condominiums are also waterfront, with spectacular sunsets and Gulf vistas as their main selling point.
Whether your lifestyle suggests effortless beachfront living, spending time on the golf course, or appreciating natural beauty and wildlife, Marco Island is a Southwest Florida gem among gems!

Kayak Sand Island in Marco Island, Fl
A kayak relaxing trip. to different islands inside Ten Thousand Islands, Fl. The open sea part of the trip is sometimes a bit rough because of the currents and choppy waves. The night spent in a tent was worthwhile .except for some loud neighbors with karaoke machine. Slept by Cape Romano, listening to vigorous waves.
