Back to our favorite anchorage, Cayo Costa, just off the northwest end of Pine Island Sound.
The entrance appears wide, but the navigable channel is very close to the island’s sand bar.
The water is deep within a boat length of the sand bar.
The park features beautiful beaches on the gulf side, just a short walk from this park landing.
Our neighbor for the night was this small catamaran, tucked near the mangroves.
We enjoyed the quiet of the anchorage.
The bay is surrounded by mangroves. An occasional pass allows dinghy passage, but only at high tide.
The following day, a few more boats arrived for a rendezvous. They were from the Cape Coral Yacht Club, and all came together for cocktails on the largest boat of their fleet. The catamaran looked like a sow with nursing piglets!
The next day we carefully exited Cayo Cost and headed south toward Fort Myers.
