Discover Sanibel Island’s Bailey’s Beach Park, a peaceful, lesser-known beach by the Sanibel causeway which is often crowd-free and easily accessible by bike!



Sanibel’s Bailey’s Beach Park


Sanibel Island is known for its incredible beaches and many flock to the better-known beaches every day. We want to introduce you to lesser-known Bailey’s Beach Park which is located at the end of Bailey Road which runs parallel to the causeway. It’s quiet with incredible views!



Directions


Bailey’s Beach Park is located at the end of Bailey Road.  When you drive over the Sanibel Causeway, take a left on Periwinkle and then a right on Bailey Road.  There is no public parking and if you want to park you have to obtain a sticker from the Sanibel Recreation Center called a B-Sticker or, you can hike or ride your bike the half-mile to the beach.


Bailey’s General Store

The now-iconic and historic Bailey’s General Store was located at Bailey Beach Park on a wharf out into the water. It was called the Sanibel Packing Company.  It was destroyed in a hurricane in 1926 and a new building was built on land and, in 1992 was moved to the Sanibel Historical Village where it can still be seen today.
