What to do and see in Sanibel Island, Florida (FL): The Best Tours
Most vacation spots are either relaxing (Tahiti) or family-friendly (Orlando). Sanibel Island, however, is that rare place which is both. Spend a quiet afternoon shell-collecting, or find a hotel with a kids' program so you can enjoy a trip to the spa or a round of golf.

Since 2009, we offer the cleanest, safest, and best maintained modern sailing vessel. Multiple daily sails that include a quarter day and sunset sail aboard a real sailboat. Visit our website for more options and availability. Owned and operated by a husband and wife, we immediately reduce the "Creepy Captain and Crew" factor and make for a relaxed and comfortable experience for all guests. Our vessel looks like new due to our rigorous daily maintenance. You'll feel a sense of pride sailing aboard our vessel as we depart Salty Sam's Marina heading for the Gulf of Mexico. We will pass the shrimp boat fleet and beautiful homes on the way to the Gulf. Once out of the marked channel, we raise our sails and shut the motor off. Wildlife such as dolphins, sea turtles, manatee, and various birds can appear at anytime. If the wind allows, we will sail towards the Sanibel lighthouse or along the shores of Fort Myers Beach. Book 6 seats for a private tour. Welcome aboard!

Crystal clear sail on a catamaran with a nice group of fellow nature appreciators. Lovely activity one half drive from sanibel island. Do pay attention that traffic can get busy nearing the launch dock in ft Myers. We recommend Dixies (which is five minutes away) for seafood on the water after your sail. That was a recommendation from someone on the sail. We saw baby dolphin and that made the sail even better. Enjoy!

Very disappointed in OnSite Watersports. Reserved 2 jet skis for 12/23 to be delivered at Cape Coral Yacht club. Called to confirm on 12/21, but no answer so I a left voicemail message. Owner never confirmed or called back. I was charged on my card the $400 deposit. He never showed up on 12/23, Called him and he had forgotten. Promised to re-schedule for 12/24. On 12/24 he texted me stating he could not get jet skis ready for use. Cancelled again. Very disappointed. I would not recommend renting from this company.

I would like to thank Liz in the office, and especially Capt. Tim Nichols for a very enjoyable fishing trip to Alligator Alley the fish for Peacock Bass. Mr. Nichols was very professional and knowledgeable, and very accommodating to my needs. It's the most fun I had on my Florida trip! Again, I would like to thank all that made this possible. Yours truly Doug Hill.

I was looking for a tour of the city of Miami for my girlfriend and I. I am very glad I came upon this company. Great views of the city of Miami and excellent service. I will definitely be using Travel Trans Tours for a different tour when I come back to Florida.
