15. Gasparilla Island
If you and yours love fishing, this place is said to be an “angler’s paradise.” The beach is gorgeous and secluded and you can often see sea turtles, manatees, and dolphins putting on a show. There are no cars here so it’s definitely a great place for romantic strolls and nature walks. Here you can also go hiking, scuba diving, shelling, snorkeling, and swimming. If you like history then visit the popular Port Boca Grande Lighthouse and its museum.
