This is my new dream house in Boca Grande! I fish here a lot and plan on staying here again next year for Tarpon Charters.

It's hard for me to choose my favorite part of Palm Island. The home is perfect, like a picture from Coastal Living. We caught a black drum, snapper and snook from the dock. We collected so many shark teeth from the beach. enough to rival the cottage collection.. The highlight was taking a midnight walk down the beach and witnessing three loggerhead hatchling walk to the water. It was a glorious site with a full moon. Thank you.

Everything was perfect! We had a great time fishing off the dock and swimming on the beach. We hope to come back many more times.
