Mote Marine Laboratory and Aquarium (a.k.a. ‘the Mote’) is definitely a must-see at some point during your vacation or staycation. It is a fun place to take the family (or friends) for a day of exploring and getting up close and personal with the sea life that inhabits the area waters as well as bodies of water around the world. The Mote goes beyond a maze of fish tanks and exhibits. Even though it has its fair share, the Mote’s research delves into so many aspects of the sea from its origins with shark research to other sea life such as dolphins, whales, and of course, manatees, to addressing today’s ecological and environment challenges and how they potentially impact the future of the earth’s water and all that lives in it.

#5- Picnic Dinner & Sunset, Boca Grande
Grab a PubSub and head to the Beach at Boca Grande! No Summer is complete with out catching a few Sunsets! We enjoy getting there an hour or so before Sunset to enjoy a picnic dinner and to have some playtime in the sand or water before the sun goes down. Sometimes we get lucky enough to see dolphin playing and jumping as the sun goes down! What a perfect way to end a day! We recommend Boca Grande, but any beach in SWFL will do!
