Judge S.S. Jolley Bridge — Local services in Marco Island

Jolly Bridge is the main bridge on and off Marco Island. There is another bridge on the south end of the Island but it is not at all busy. The Jolly Bridge does not have any amenities at all. It just has a few sand car only parking spots to park near the water to fish off the land or walk into the water from the dirt area. Not what I would call a beach, just nice picture opportunities. Not handicap friendly at all. Dogs okay, just pick up after them, again, no amenities even for dogs. You can't camp or sleep overnight, but you can fish off the dirt overnight. No fees for parking.
