We came to this beach with the intention of collecting shells, but unfortunately, there weren't a lot to be found. The beach itself is pleasant, although the shell count is quite low. I'm not sure if this is always the case, but we had more success at Bowman's and Lighthouse Point. On the bright side, the parking payment covers all the beaches on Sanibel and Captiva, and the phone app functions smoothly.
Drove down to Barefoot beach after finishing my convention. This is a beautiful secluded beach. White sands, small waves and green water. Not a lot of beachgoers after 5 pm. The sunset was amazing and worth the drive. The water was not clear on my visit, but I believe it can be with proper wind and tides.
There is a kayak launch across the parking area and the canal side looks beautiful with the mangroves and very natural. I did see the famous gopher turtle crossing the path.
