Located off Southwest Florida’s Gulf Coast, Marco Island provides hotel guests with gorgeous beaches, world-class shopping, a thriving art scene and plentiful outdoor attractions.
The many art galleries and museums make seeing and even buying local art a snap. Drop by Art Sellers Inc, the Mihs Museum Foundation, or Marco Island’s Art League to peruse some of the latest offerings by the island’s artists. Then wrap up your excursion by enjoying the culinary arts and fresh seafood at the Old Marco Lodge Crab House.
Visit Everglades National Park, the only place in the world where alligators and crocodiles exist side by side—exhilarating airboat rides through the Everglades are a must! If maritime pursuits are more your thing, grab a kayak and paddle your way around the scenic Southwest Florida shoreline at Cape Romano. Come evening, there are countless dining options, spanning everything from a dinner cruise on the Marco Island Princess Boat Tour, to exquisite steak and seafood at Marco Prime Steaks Seafood.
And, of course, there’s the beach. Deep-sea fishing, boating, parasailing, sunbathing, sandcastle-building, and birding are only a few of the many activities available on Marco Island’s beautiful Gulf shores. Tigertail Beach especially, with its boardwalks and public bath house, provides visitors to Marco Island hotels with the perfect beach experience.
