Kice Island is a short way off and is best explored by kayak. It is hauntingly beautiful and is a photographer’s paradise. Here, you will be able to see fascinating domed homes dotted around the island. The whole place is virtually deserted, so enjoy those empty beaches.
Keewaydin Island welcomes you with white sands and pretty shells. You can rent boogie boards or take a dip in the pristine waters. If you want family beach time, this is the place to do it.
Vacation rentals on Marco Island are a stone’s throw from the pier, where you can take boat tours to explore the neighboring islands. You can go whale and dolphin watching with a guide, or hire a kayak or canoe and explore the islands on your own. There are also fishing charters for those who wish to catch their dinner to enjoy back at their vacation home on Marco Island.
The island also has a nature park if you want to spend some time with your kids away from the beach. Briggs Nature Center has about a mile of boardwalk, which winds through the trees, complete with information about what there is to find in the area. It is cool and peaceful, but be alert so that you don’t miss any of the island alligators. There are also picnic tables if you wish to take your lunch with you.
Canine Cove is a 5-star park for your furry family member. The park accommodates large and small dogs in separate areas, with water fountains for all their four-legged guests and seating for their owners. It is a great place to spend time with your family pet and to mingle with people who share similar interests.
Cool Tours from Marco Island
On the island's coast, numerous providers offer ocean boat tours, including dolphin watching tours. There is also the option of an excursion to the remote and unspoiled Keewaydin Island.

Or if you prefer, discover the famous Everglades wetlands with a half-day tour on a classic air-powered boat. Watch the alligators and learn about their living habits. With a bit of luck, you might even spot some baby gators in the Everglades National Park. If you are feeling particularly adventurous, embark on a guided fishing adventure through the national park, angling for Largemouth Bass, while keeping an eye out for those alligators!
