Tucked in our favorite anchorage at Cayo Costa at 2:15 PM. Very nice run by Ft Myers and glad to have fewer boats in the narrow channel to deal with.
The island (Cayo Costa) is mostly a state park although there are a few private residents living there. The beaches lack the condos and mega-mansions that occupy so much of Florida's shore line. Like the air force beach at Cape Canaveral, it gives us a glimpse into what it all looked like years ago.
We like to take the dingy to the bay side dock and hike the 0.9 mile road to the gulf beach. Shelling is generally good, if one is in the mood. We have actually seen the green flash at sunset.
I had always wondered if that was myth or legend based on some one's drug crazed claim--but rest assured, we both saw it, no chemicals involved.
Time to entertain our fellow inhabitants of the anchorage by putting the dingy together.
Stay tuned, more later.
