Bowman's Beach on Sanibel Island, Florida is Simply Beautiful

Jennifer Hewes
You certainly don't need to travel outside of the Unites States to experience a luxurious honeymoon or vacation. Sanibel Island located in Florida is one of the most beautiful and serene places around. Sanibel is home to a wildlife sanctuary and boasts seashell heavens to all who come. Unlike beaches rich with entertainment industry such as Daytona Beach, Sanibel nurtures all who come in a very quiet and sophisticated manner. One very tranquil beach on Sanibel Island is called Bowman's Beach. This beach should be named one of America's favorite beaches by far.

Bowman's Beach is out of mind and out of sight of all hotels, homes, and resorts. It sits quietly, just like the shells which lay upon their beaches. There is a private trail that leads up to the beach and honeymooners or lovers can enjoy one another's private thoughts as they meander down the long path. After crossing over a lovely wooden bridge that stretches over freshwater, visitors will soon arrive at their secret destination. This beach is perfect for couples, but also is lovely for families who want to lay low and not worry about boardwalks, ice cream shops, and high energy volleyball games.

Because this beach is isolated, it is a very good idea to pack all of your things for the day. Packing a nice romantic lunch with some fresh fruit is the way to go while enjoying nature at its very best. While eating, beachgoers can experience solitude as they may not have ever experienced before. After a delightful little lunch, playing in the warm waters and walking down the open beaches will put a smile on anyone's face. Many people are spotted doing the 'Sanibel Stoop,' while scoping out the various seashells that layer the white, sandy beach. It is common for couples to find a new hobby together while they collect the treasures brought to them by the aquatic waters.

Although this beach is quite private and secluded, Bowman's Beach located on Sanibel Island does have a few amenities to speak of. There are bathrooms, picnic tables, showers, and bicycle racks for those who come out biking to the beach. One unique amenity that may surprise the beachgoers at Bowman's Beach is the barbeque grills that are set up for everyone to enjoy. You will notice that this beach is never overcrowded and is perfect for little ones to enjoy the calm Gulf waters. There is a fee to park your car in the parking lot that leads up to the beach. Currently, the charge is $2.00 per hour.
