This park features a nicely paved path that winds through lush vegetation, offering sporadic views of the water. As you run, you may encounter some wildlife, including tortoises, so watch your step as you go.

This Banyan Figs Ficus has aerial roots that grow down from the branches that reach the ground, creating a dramatic structure. These trees can live for centuries, so I would venture to say this Ficus could be quite old.

This is a nice observation deck or at least a viewing area that looks out over the lagoon on Wildlife Drive, which is a one-way paved road through J.N. "Ding" Darling National Wildlife Refuge. The deck was actually destroyed by Hurricane Ian in 2022 so is in the process of being rebuilt.

Situated on the subtropical barrier island of Sanibel, it is part of the largest undeveloped mangrove ecosystem in the US. Renowned for its birdwatching opportunities, with over 200 species of birds in the area, as well as several observation towers offering bird's-eye views of the water.

This observation deck is a great viewpoint along 'Wildlife Drive', a one-way paved road through 'J.N. "Ding" Darling National Wildlife Refuge' with a 15 MPH speed limit. The refuge is open year-round except Fridays and the entrance fees are $10 for cars and $1 for bikers/hikers. (The deck was destroyed by Hurricane Ian in 2022, so its currently not there, but it will be rebuilt.)
