Loyal Sanibel Island visitors would like to support the recovery of the islands, so we have compiled a list of which Sanibel restaurants are open.

The Sanibel Causeway is now open to non-pass holders (as of January 2, 2023) so anyone is allowed to come onto the island.

Keep in mind, Lee County has reinstated the Sanibel Causeway tolls as of January 1, 2023.
