It’s the largest of Florida’s Ten Thousand Islands, but its stunning white sand beaches, abundance of activities, and breathtaking wildlife make this cozy beach town one in a million. The City of Marco sits on Marco Island, a city in Collier County, nestled on the Southern tip of Southwest Florida. Popular Florida hotspots like Naples and Fort Myers are less than an hour drive north, but there’s plenty in Marco Island to entertain individuals, couples, and families alike.

The City of Marco has a population of around 18,000 which nearly doubles during peak tourist season in the winter. Locals and tourists rave about the island’s six miles of pristine beaches lining the Gulf of Mexico. This stretch of white sand and brilliant blue water is home to some of Florida’s best shelling. Whether you choose to take a guided tour or a casual stroll along the coast, you’ll be sure to take home a treasure trove of colorful seashells.
