Welcome to Bonita Beach and Bay Bungalow! Located in beautiful Bonita Springs, known for its Gulf Coast beaches and parks, including secluded Little Hickory Island Beach Park and Bonita Beach Park, with its sand dunes. Nearby, to the north, is Lovers Key State Park, a popular swimming and kayaking spot. Made up of 4 barrier islands, the park is home to manatees and dolphins.

Our home is basically a three minute walk to the beach. Go to the end of the street turn right and walk by three houses and then go across the street to beach access number three. This speech is never crowded as there are no condo buildings along the road. Almost exclusively, single-family homes, and sometimes a multi family.
Favorite things for us to do is walk the beach in the morning. Bring the kayaks out and go ocean kayaking or kayak in the bay. We also have a paddle board you are welcome to use. Feel free to fish off the 2 piers located on the bay at the end of the street. You can use docks for kayaks etc. both docks and the waterfront area is owned by the six houses on our street. I also sit out and have my coffee at the little table there.
Great restaurants, Shopping and entertainment close by.
Numerous state parks and preserves ready to explore.
