Take A Break With A Marco Island Vacation

By Scott Wagner


Florida is one of the premier places to take a vacation in the entire nation. It is full of all kinds of cities that are right on the coastline, and you can choose from three different bodies of water to visit. One of them is the Gulf of Mexico, where you can take a Marco Island vacation.

Marco Island is located in Collier County, and is located in the southwestern area of the state. It has a long and rich history, as many artifacts have been dug up in local archaeological sites. In fact, some of those artifacts date back as far as 500 A. D, making this a great destination for people who love history.

Beyond the rich history of the land, there is the weather that everyone enjoys, especially in winter. During the coldest months of the year, Florida remains largely temperate, with clear skies and sunny days. Snow birds, or people who live in the area in winter to escape blustery winter weather, flock to the area every year. The locals who live there year round usually get the island back in summer, during the rainy season.

In the summer, when the area is the hottest, is also when the rain comes. From June to October, during hurricane season, the area experiences a lot of downpours. There are still many clear days, but it does rain quite a bit. This is why most tourists wait until after the season passes in order to go and visit, when things dry up.

The water is the biggest draw here, especially the beaches. In fact, there are multiple beaches there, and many others on nearby islands that are easily accessible by boat. On these beaches, visitors can enjoy a bevy of activities, including sunbathing, surfing, jet skis, paddle boards and much more. Or just spend some time making a sand castle with your family.

Boating is also a popular pastime in the area. You can go for picturesque by taking a sunset tour, which is also great for couples to have a romantic time. If you love dolphins, there are boat tours where you can get up close for photos or videos. Sightseeing tours let you take in the islands at a fun yet leisurely pace for more pictures.

Another boating excursion that is quite popular is one to nearby Cape Romano. They have these famous domed homes that are fun to photograph. This is also the best spot in the entire area for gathering shells, which is a great source of free souvenirs for you and people back home who you want to get a gift for.

Fishing is also an activity that you will see plenty of people doing. There are many boats available for charter to take you out into the deep sea and catch a variety of different fish. The crew knows the best spots and will clean the fish and even ship it home if you do not live nearby.

You can fly in and book a hotel or rent a car separately, but that will cost you more than a package deal. To save money and make the planning process easier, consider a package deal to get you there.
