A FEW FUN THINGS TO DO on Pine Island!!!

**We took this beautiful picture at the very tip of our Island (Bokeelia side). There is nothing like these views!!**

- Gault Preserve- Great hiking spot, wildlife watching.
- Pineland Monument Park- Beautiful views, a very small spot to swim, put your toes in, fish, launch kayaks
