Dinghy Access on Sanibel Island South of Tween Waters Marina (Western Florida Coastline)
The message below authored by Captain Farst, was part of a discussion about dinghy access on southern Sanibel Island, begun on the AGLCA group. As you will see, Captain Farst and his crew found little in way of dinghy landings in this region.
We just were there and dinghy access is a problem in that area. We were at Tween Waters and were trying to get access south near the hardware/grocery store. The Ding Darling administration said that they didn’t have anywhere, the Chamber thought the Rental Outfit would allow you to pay to tie up but they said “no”– twice.
You can go down to Sanibel Marina or up to Tween Waters but we could not find anywhere close to tie up in the middle of Sanibel. Please let us know if you have had better luck.

Talk to the folks over a Jensens marina. It’s only a half a block from the grocery/ liquor store and several good restaurants.
Don’t forget to get some Queenie’s ice cream while you visit Jensens!
