FISHING:
This area reportedly has some of the best fishing in the world; at Lemon Bay, Charlotte Harbor and the Gulf of Mexico. Boca Grande is said to be the "Tarpon Fishing Capital of the World," and fishermen around the globe drop in to the
"World's Richest Tarpon Tournament," held early summer. Whether fishing on the Gulf, the intra-coastal waterways, or in our back garden, be sure to check the local fishing laws, as licenses are required.
WILDLIFE:
An abundance of bird life is present in the Rotonda area; bald eagles, the great blue heron, ospreys, egrets, American white pelicans and brown pelicans to name but a few. The latter put on a great diving show when they plummet from great
heights to feast on unaware fish. Manatees (sea cows) are flourishing and sometimes stay in local waters year round.
Remember to obey the speed signs when in manatee protection zones. Bottlenose dolphins can be seen swimming and frolicking in the Gulf. They are so approachable, but don't feed them as it is against the law. Beginning May 1 to
October 31 is the sea turtle nesting season. They plod from the sea, at night, to lay their eggs on the beach, which take about six weeks to mature. Check with the Englewood Chamber of Commerce for guided outings to view the turtles.
SHOPPING:
The Port Charlotte Town Center Mall, the Sarasota Square Mall and the VF Factory Outlet are a diversion from the beach, watersports and outdoors life. Supermarkets conveniently located to Rotonda Retreat are Publix at Cape Haze and Kash 'n' Karry. Also close by, a post office, video rental store and the quaint specialty stores of Boca Grande.
