Recreation on the Island 

     WALK ON THE BEACH- Tropical climate, beach and water are the major attractions in Marco.  
        Break yourself in gently with a stroll along the beach.
        Breathe in the clean salt air and watch fishermen, birds and boats go about their business.  
        Maybe you'll be lucky enough to catch a glimpse of some dolphin or a manatee swimming by.
        Just north of South Seas Club on the beach is Tigertail Beach.  You can rent beach cabanas, water trikes and sailboards.
        One mile walk down the beach from South Seas Club is the Marriott Hotel. 
        Here you can rent sailboats, water trikes, jet skis and arrange to go parasailing.

    PARASAILING - YOU CAN SEE FOR MILES UP THERE.  It is fun for all ages so call Marco Island Ski and Watersports.

    WAVERUNNER ADVENTURE - ANOTHER WAY TO ENJOY THE PRISTINE WATERS AROUND MARCO.
                               
    TROLLEY TOUR OF THE TOWN - For relaxation and education, hop on the Marco Island
         Trolley Tours.  Get your bearings on this 1 hour 45 minute tour of Marco and Goodland.  
        You can get off at any of the stops along the way and reboard later.  
        Visit the ancient Calusa Indian mounds of shell and
         find out what attracted the tribe of Paleo-Indians to the area.
         Browse the shops for unique jewelry and artifacts influenced by
         these first settlers.

    SUNSET AT A BEACHSIDE BAR - The sunsets don't come much better anywhere than they do on Marco Island
        and they can seem even more spectacular with a cool glass of something in your hand.  
        We recommend the terrace at Sunset Grill, the chickee hut at Capri Fish House or
        join the sunset party at Quinn's on the beach.
