Since 1978, the Boca Grande Club has been a home, a vacation 
destination and an elegant tropical escape for members and guests who 
have been fortunate enough to find us. Once through our gates, you 
can leave your old life behind; here you will find life as you 
imagined it should be lived. Arise each morning to beautiful sunrises 
and take a walk along the miles of one of the most beautiful beaches 
in Florida. While walking you will soon discover that most of the 
company you come across with will be shore life. In the evening, 
return to our beach when the sun is declining and you will see one of 
the most beautiful sunsets you ever imagined. Who knows, you may even 
see the "Green Flash"!

The club offers many amenities and services all the way from fine 
dining to fitness and tennis. Accommodations at our property are 
available for rent, long term and short term. We offer a unique 
island experience to include a full service restaurant with tastes of 
seafood straight from our waters. We have 8 tennis courts directly on 
our property. Our pool facilities, fitness center, water activities 
and social calendar will add to your Florida experience. 

Boca Grande is a charming centralized village on 7-mile-long
Gasparilla Island, which is located between Fort Myers and Sarasota.
Access to Boca Grande in via a toll bridge which tends to keep the
island peaceful and quiet.

Legend has it that the infamous pirate Jose Gaspar once lived here 
in style, and the lure was then, as it is now, the wonderful weather 
and some of the world’s best tarpon fishing. 

The biggest event in Boca Grande is the annual “World’s Richest 
Tarpon Tournament," usually held the second week of July. Visitors 
can enjoy miles of beaches on the island, picnicking, fishing, 
swimming, shelling. Nature trails are available for hikers. 
Gasparilla Island State Recreational Area is the site of a still-
working, wooden U.S. Coast Guard lighthouse, built in 1890. 

Boca Grande has been referred to as a Florida version of Nantucket, 
where you’ll find upscale boutiques, art galleries and fine dining. 
This island is unique as you can operate golf carts on the public 
streets and on the golf cart paths throughout the entire island.

We would be most interested in exchanging/swapping homes for 
Christmas week at a Colorado Ski Resort. We also prefer ski-in/ski-
out properties. Will consider properties with a "very short" walk to 
the lifts. If you have a second/vacation home, we could also exchange 
and you could use our home on a date other than Christmas week if you 
wished. Bocagrandevillagehome2 has additonal photos.
