No high rise buildings, no commercial property, no congested public beach access, no traffic, just the quiet peaceful sound of waves, shore birds, and sea breezes. The property is fenced and is the last home on a private street. No association costs, no minimum rental period, just safety and privacy for you and your family. Palm Island is located 1000' offshore and along the Intracoastal between Sarasota and Ft Myers. Large car ferries service the island every 15 minutes. Seventy years ago, most barrier islands on the West coast were pristine and tropical because the public was limited by their car ferry system, this includes Sanibel-Captiva and Boca Grande. Large bridges later replaced the ferry system and made those islands more accessible, congested, over built, polluted and very expensive. Today, Palm Island maintains it's original Caribbean feel because it is the last true barrier island that has limited public access by maintaining it's car ferry system. Ferries run every ten to fifteen minutes to and from the island. Drive on, drive off, and separate yourself from the rest of the world. The island has a beautiful resort for weddings and larger functions, restaurant, ice cream shop, and golf cart rentals. The customary mode of transportation on the island is your own golf cart, but you may also drive your car everywhere on the island. Big box stores like Walmart and Home Depot, shopping centers, and grocery stores are convenient and located one to three miles from the ferry landing. Seller is licensed real estate professional. Unfortunately, showings will be difficult to confirm, so please make arrangements ahead of time.
