What to pack

What March feels like

March is the peak of spring training and the busiest month on the barrier islands; the Sanibel causeway backs up by mid-morning. It is also prime shelling season after a blow, and you will see the Sanibel stoop in action all along the tideline.

Real rain shows up about 3 days all month; the rest stay dry. Humidity stays comfortable; the air never feels heavy.

Can you swim?

The Gulf runs about 76° — comfortable for swimming.
