I went with my mom for the tram tour in the afternoon. We booked online through their site, which…read moreabout 20 dollars per person after taxes and fees. We checked in at the Ding Darling visitor center. The friendly attendant at the counter informed us the guide/driver is ready for us and to meet her at the tram. We were also given binoculars that were free to borrow with a credit card on hold (we would get charged if we lose them). We boarded the tram about 15 minutes before the tour. The whole tram was full, and every seat was taken, including the front seat in the truck pulling the tram. Kathy, our guide/driver introduced us to the tour and informed potential animals we would see. We were all informed to let her know if we see any potential animals so she can slow down the tram when needed. When we went to the park, we saw various animals including many types of birds, fishes, manatees, and even iguanas. The whole tour lasted about 90 minutes, with a small 10 break to walk and view the observation tower. Kathy did an excellent job explaining about the park, the types of plants and animals, and how the park was affected by the hurricane and other things. She also answered any questions that the guests had. She drove very safely, being cautious of the other vehicles and pedestrians at the park. We were also informed that we could walk around the park after the tour. However, we decided it was too hot to walk a couple miles and left after the tour. The visitor center looked to be undergoing renovations, but the gift shop was open. We bought a shirt that was on sale. The bathrooms were clean and even had information about the various animals we could see. We were also given a brochure as well before the tour. For the price paid, this was a great value. We did get to see various types of animals, plants, and birds. Our guide/driver was friendly, informative, and cautious. Even though the hurricane did some damage to the park, the repairs looked nice and great to see the various wildlife coming back to the park. This was a wonderful tour and a must do when visiting Sanibel Island.

One downside, early morning departure.... coffee...and more coffee. the capt and the 2 of us were on a big white "flatsboat" ....Roomy, with a big outboard motor. A short run up the coast. flat as glass water and we were fishing for Tarpon. The capt hooked up the bait and cast out for us.... I did not have any luck but my man hooked up on two huge ones that put on an amazing jumping display before they broke the line. My luck came a little later in the morning when we were fishing near the shore in the mangroves and i hooked two beautiful snook. Great trip on the water, fish fought, suntan worked on.... then a well deserving nap when we got back to the condo !

Fantastic Shark Fishing Experience on Captiva Island!…read more Our shark fishing trip with Coast to Coast was absolutely exhilarating from start to finish! Coby and his mate Brent were incredibly knowledgeable and made sure we had an unforgettable adventure. Something I thought fascinating was how they use a drone to deploy bait. The highlight of my trip was undoubtedly the thrill of reeling in those powerful sharks in which I caught 2 7-8ft Lemon Sharks and a 5ft Blacktip Shark. It's a feeling like no other! We also appreciated how respectful the crew was towards the environment, ensuring all sharks were handled promptly, safely and released back into the water unharmed. If you're looking for an exciting and well-organized fishing excursion with a focus on conservation, look no further than Coast To Coast Fishing.
