Very impressed with all the detail you provided. I didn’t even know about this area (I live in Dunedin in Pinellas County). I can’t wait to make this trip on my Waverunner. Thank you for all the detail you provided.
Great videos! I love exploring FL and enjoy sharing your videos with family to entice visits. The maps, drone views and commentary make the videos complete. BTW I’m your mother’s cousin, once removed and a couple hours north of you.
Great video. We just camped on cayo costa this past weekend in the "rustic" cabins. The beach was beautiful but it was hot in the cabins and the no-see-ums were brutal. We drove through Matlacha on the way to Safe Harbor Marina and loved it, so when we got home Sunday we booked a house there. I'll be back in just 4 weeks 😊. Hoping to boat all around the area including getting back to Cayo Costa. Keep the videos coming, we get alot of ideas from you.
Thanks for watching and commenting! I haven’t camped there yet but want to when my oldest (4 years old) is a little older. Gonna try it in the wintertime first. I’m glad you all are getting back here soon! Have fun and thanks for the support 😊
Well done 👏👏👏,is that an FX HO ? How many miles do you think you covered and how much fuel did it take ? Planning a trip in three weeks from Lovers Key launch, thanks for the hard work 💪😎
Thanks for commenting Gunther. It’s a VX Cruiser HO. Been very happy with it. I think I went just over 45 miles on this trip. I usually get around 6mpg so probably around 7-8 gallons. (18 gal tank and was plenty over half tank when I got back). I’ll check when I fill it up before the next trip. Big fan of Lovers Key. Want to do another trip down there. Hope to see you out on the water sometime! 🚤🏝
Hi Alexander! Thanks for watching and commenting! In Cape Coral, I recommend Harbour Rentals located in Cape Harbour, at the south tip of Chiquita Blvd. In Fort Myers, I would recommend Salty Sams. Have fun!!
how long did it take you so get from Matlacha to Pelican Bay. Wife and Iwill be down in Cape Coral soon and are getting a 42 foot yacht with a dingy for the back. Is it pretty easy to maneuver around the islands? Obviously won't be going 50mph but more like around 20mph once we hit the normal speed zone. Love this area and plan on getting up to Boca Grande as well. Love learning from your videos. Thanks!
I’ve never seen anyone in there who isn’t fishing, and the Park Ranger did mention that there is a big alligator 🐊 that hangs out in there so that may be why, ha. I’m want to do a fishing trip there now though. Thinking on the paddle board?!
@@thecapecorallife We're heading down there the week of Labor Day. Love your videos and they've given me a lot of good places to go see. Can't wait to bring the boat down.

Why didn't you put in at Lavender's Landing in Bokeelia?
Hey Frank! I’ve put it at Jugg Creek but not Lavender’s Landing. I’ll check it out. Thanks for the tip 😀
What time of year was this trip undertaken?
Does anyone ever hang out in the lagoon?
