Sanibel Island recently graced Southern Living with an appearance in the magazine's Readers' Choice Awards. The island ranked among the South's "Top 10 Best Beach Destinations" in the January 2009 issue. The poll results are intended to highlight the best of the South, from cities to shorelines.

Pristine, scenic Sanibel Island sits just west of Fort Myers along Florida's southwest coast. Popular pastimes on the barrier island include swimming, sunning, shell collecting, birding, kayaking and fishing. The wildlife-rich island boasts diverse nature (the J.N. "Ding" Darling National Wildlife Refuge is located here), plus world-famous shelling, innovative island cuisine, a thriving art community and abundant activities for all ages. The unique island has also been recognized in major magazines such as Coastal Living and Condé Nast Traveler.
