In Pine Island Florida

Pine Island Florida

Pine Island is the largest island on the west coast of Florida and is seventeen (17) miles long and two (2) miles wide.  It is a secluded "country waterfront" area and that is a huge part of its' charm.  You would assume that be being the largest island on the west coast that there would be many beach areas to enjoy. Actually it has almost NO SANDY BEACHES.  The beaches are located on Cayo Costa and visitors are taken by boat to enjoy what the island has to offer with respect to beaches.  Pine Island consists of two towns, Bokeelia and St. James City.

 

The Calusa Indians had its cultural center in Southwest Florida and many shell mounds were found on Pine Island.  There remains a periodically worked archeological site known as THE RANDELL RESEARCH CENTER on the northwest edge of the island.  Again, as you have heard in all these community listings, the Calusa Indians had all but vanished by 1750 due to warfare and diseases which they had little or no immunity against.

 

Pine Island was basically uninhabited until 1873 when a Russian sailor named Captain John Smith arrived after surviving a hurricane on Punta Rassa, one of the major shipping ports of the southwest and located very near Sanibel Causeway.  Smith decided that Pine Island would be a better selection for habitation and better protected from the devastating storms by the out islands of Sanibel, Captiva and Cayo Costa.  He was right. 

 

Bokeelia, a sleepy little town, is located on the northern most tip of Pine Island and is across Charlotte sound from Boca Grande.  You must come around the big curve at the top of the island before you come across the picturesque white houses trimmed in lattice and the fishing piers that extend into the bay.  Mangrove islets surround Bokeelia into Pine Island Sound, not sandy white beaches.  Bokeelia has a few restaurants and a fair number of condos.  Fishing is great, swimming is on Cayo Costa.

 

St. James City is on the south end, at the foot of Pine Island.  For a brief time it was a thriving resort, it is now a quiet bedroom community and enjoys the serenity that Pine Island has to offer and that many people are looking to have, a bit of OLD FLORIDA.  It has a small canal network and several restaurants and taverns.  St. James once through it would be the legislative seat of Lee county until a hurricane almost put an end to St. James City.
