Things to do in Boca Grande, Florida (FL): The Best Outdoor Activities

February 2, 2022 Jacquiline Darosa

Boca Grande is an idyllic small town located on the west coast of Florida, not too far from Fort Myers and Sanibel. Boca Grande is a serene and naturally beautiful area, but there is no shortage of things to keep you and your family amused during the daytime. The Boca Grande Lighthouse Museum is an interesting and educational day trip. For the art lovers, the Paradise Island Gallery has some stunning pieces of art on display and is definitely worth a visit. For a little more excitement, hike through the Cayo Costa State Park. This excellent location has miles of stunning beaches, acres of pine forests, and water that is rich with sea life.
