Blue Dolphin Beach House-Guidebook
FOOD!
One of our favorite eating locations. Not too fancy-happy hour available daily. Shrimp is very good! There is another Pinchers on the island, but I recommend that location only for lunch when you can sit outside. Dinner is inside, which is not airy and bright.

Local Day Trip Sightseeing Adventures
Great day trip, especially for avid 'shellers'. At night, we find the very dark, secluded roads scary, so we only go during the day. But many nice restaurants! Use YELP to find some local favorites!

A straight shot north on Estero Boulevard, which turns into San Carlos after the sky bridge. Warning: January-April it can take nearly an hour to get on/off the island. Plan trips early/late in the day.
