Bowman's Beach

1700 Bowmanâ€™s Beach Road

Sanibel, FL 33957

Information

Parking Fees: $3/hr

*Lee County Annual Parking Stickers are accepted at this location.

Isolated and picturesque, this beach is probably the most popular on Sanibel. Great shelling and amenities make it worth the five minute hike from the parking area to the beach. Adventurous beachcombers can walk for several miles on unobstructed white sand beaches covered in shells. The shoreline at Bowman's Beach has experienced little of the intense development seen on the rest of the islands. Amenities include picnic tables, grills, pay phone, bathrooms and bike racks.
