Phase One Is Now Complete 

The reopening of Causeway Islands Park on May 1st marked the completion of Phase One of the restoration project. Visitors can now enjoy free on-site parking, restrooms, and designated areas to dispose of trash and recycling. Park rangers and staff will be present at the park to assist guests and ensure that everyone is following park rules. Additionally, volunteers from local wildlife organizations will be on-site to educate visitors about nesting shorebirds and help protect clearly marked areas to protect these vulnerable species.

What Is Coming Next? 

Lee County is currently in the design phase for Phase Two of Sanibel Causeway Islands Park. Some of the planned upgrades during this phase include structured parking areas, permanent restrooms, improved beach access, ADA accommodations, outdoor showers, site drainage and irrigation systems, shade structures, and landscaping. The design phase is expected to be completed by summer 2025, with construction starting later this year and completion projected for 2026.

Causeway Islands Park Is Another Symbol of Sanibel’s Resilience 

The reopening of Causeway Islands Park is more than just the restoration of a place to relax; it is yet another symbol of the resilience and determination of the Sanibel community. We are so proud to be part of this strong community!
