Boca Grande Florida
Boca Grande is located on Gasparilla Island which was the nickname of the "last of the buccaneers", a famous pirate, Jose Gaspar. No one really knows whether Jose Gaspar was real or imaginary, but folklore or not, he is the inspiration for the name of the island and the annual Gasparilla Festival that is visited by thousands.
They say most Floridians have never visited Boca Grande, which could be called one of the End of the Road Towns, but it is extremely popular with tourists and fishermen alike. Boca Grande is located at the end of the island and can only be reached by a toll bridge. Beautiful, beautiful homes amid a small quaint town makes Boca Grande special in its own right and a great place to visit or live. The beach at Boca Grande is just that, grand by all definitions. Beautiful crystal clear waters, dolphins you can see if you look hard enough and white sand that is pristine.
According to records, the first inhabitants of Boca Grande were the Calusa Indians, just like so many of the other areas. The Calusas' lived there as long ago as 5000 BC. However, due to warfare, slavery and the diseases brought to the area by man, the Indians all but disappeared by the 1700's.
Boca Grande Pass is one of the deepest natural inlets in Florida. That inlet allowed for Boca to become one of the busiest sea ports in Southwest Florida. Phosphate rock was discovered on the island around 1885 and was in great demand worldwide for use in fertilizer among other products. Boca became the largest shipping port for the product until the 1970's when the phosphate companies began using Tampa and Manatee County for economic reasons. Boca Grande was abandoned as a major sea port for phosphate and had to turn to other ways to survive. Fishing became their mainstay. Huge numbers of mullet and other fish were caught and shipped to many markets to the north and south of Boca Grande.
The trains that once brought supplies to and phosphate from Gasparilla Island were now bringing wealthy fishermen looking for that trophy Tarpon to hang on their wall. Boca Grande was a resilient town and because of that, over the years, Boca has become a unique community with large numbers of wealthy winter residents rubbing elbows with the locals and fishermen who call Boca Grande home.
Come on in the water's fine and fishing is the "cats' meow".
