Palm Island, Florida

Palm Island is one of the nicest beaches on the Gulf of Mexico.  It is located in the Port Charlotte/ Punta Gorda area and is north of Fort Myers.  Palm Island is only accessible by a barge and this keeps the beach in pristine condition and cars on the island to a minimum.

The major portion of Palm Island belongs to Palm Island Resorts- a large community of beach condos.  Many of the condos are rented out to vacationers and others are occupied as first or second homes.

Palm Island during the Day... 

I have been visiting the island for 18 years now and have watched its shape change as the ocean gives and takes sand to the shores. The island hasn't really changed all that much though, and its beauty has not diminished at all.

Because the island is on the Gulf of Mexico, the water is warm most of the year and the sunsets are spectacular.

This calendar features various aspects of Palm Island- the docks, the villas, the flora, and, of course, the beach.

Sunsets at Palm Island 

Because of Palm Island's location, it boasts spectacular sunsets. The sunsets always set over the Gulf of Mexico and display pinks, purples oranges, reds, and yellows across the sky. The water sometimes reflects these amazing patterns onto the ocean, or sometimes it races across the clouds.

Since I have been visiting the island for so long, I have a huge collection of sunset photography. I started taking pictures of the sunset with my first camera fifteen years ago! There is some real personality to every sunset- lingering colors that fade slowly, or a brilliant swirl of colors that become navy then black quickly.

This calendar features my most recent trips to the island and captures the blues, pinks, and oranges that are often present in the sunsets there.
