Sanibel & Captiva Islands Chamber of Commerce — Attraction in Sanibel

While in Sanibel for a weekend getaway, my wife and I rented Electric Bicycles at Billys Bike Rental and had the best time of our lives! Sanibel has dedicated bike paths all over the island. I have a back back and knee and we easily biked 25 miles on the E Bikes! Best time ever! We are hooked and will be back! If you like to ride a bike, but maybe because of your age or physical ability, don't think you can do it, you really need to try the electric bikes! They make riding a bike so easy. You don't have to work hard and sweat and can easily cover twice as much distance or more. I highly recommend Sanibel Island and its beautiful beaches and bike paths! Very small town feel beach and we love it! The electric bike allowed me to ride a bike again comfortably! Great invention! Everyone should try! Worth the extra money vs renting...

We pulled into the visitor center and they had high speed internet which allowed us to quickly rebook a flight for the next day. They then helped us find a nice place to stay for the night and recommended some excellent stops and restaurants. Really helped us enjoy our "bonus" day on Sanibel and...
