Lighthouse Beach

Fodor's Review:

At Sanibel's southern tip, the frequently photographed Sanibel Lighthouse, built in 1884, before the island was settled, guards Lighthouse Beach. Although the lighthouse is not open to the public, the area around it has been a wildlife refuge since 1950. A fishing pier, nature trail, and rest rooms are available.
