Instead of a White Christmas, Try a Green Christmas on Sanibel!

Despite the allure of the legendary White Christmas, Sanibel offers a wonderfully green and peaceful “fifth season” for those who choose to spend their holiday on the island. It’s a safe, entertaining and enjoyable vacation destination for everyone in the family.

 

We call it the fifth season as it is like no other. The month of December is full of gifts and surprises from those living and working on Sanibel Island. Kicked off with a Luminaria Festival in early December where beautiful luminaria line Periwinkle and the surrounding streets, the Festival bills itself as a gift to the community.

 

During the Festival, residents and visitors are able to travel by foot, car or bicycle through more than three miles of lighted luminaries to visit stores, shops and restaurants all beautifully decorated in their best holiday finery. The “attendees” of the Festival are also able to enjoy refreshments and live music. And all the shops are open for business. What a lovely way to do your holiday shopping! The festivities start at dusk and end approximately 9:30pm.

 

Our first Christmas in the tropics took a few minutes of getting used to, but once adjusted to the climate, we quickly became enamored with Palm Trees replacing Evergreens for holiday adornment.  And there is nothing like a long walk or luxurious swim after a heavy holiday meal to help digest!

 

Stay tuned for more information on the fifth and best season on Sanibel.
