Carolyn,

It sounds like you are having a great time and finding wonderful things. You will like Mitchells. We were there in March and really liked it. Plan a longer stay next time. :) Good luck at Blind Pass today.

I left Apr 1 and went to Delaware then drove down the coast to Orlando and picked up my partner on Apr 11. We finally made it to Sanibel today and went to the beach around the lighthouse. We found scallops, a paper fig, olives, kitten paws, an 7″ whelk, conches, augers, cockles, a murex and others. But no wentletraps. We found these by the cement blocks in the water. Also found a large horse conch egg case and what looked to be a sea pork. We decided to stay the night and booked into Mitchells (got the last one!). Going out for dinner, then will walk the beach. Tommorow we will go to Blind Pass and try our luck there. This is such a wonderful island. We took an earlier tram ride through the Ding Darling Reserve and our guide was wonderful. We are looking at coming back for sure! Your site was a big factor in planning this trip. Thanks for posting all the information!
