Here's our list of where to go and things to do in Marco Island. We stress that this is our list - and there may be many others that are to your preference. In any case, the reception at Crystal Shores will be pleased to advise and supply directions, as needed.

<strong>Shopping</strong>

There are two Publix supermarkets on the island which are both about the same size and useful for stocking up for your stay.
<ul>

</ul>
There are various Malls to be found in the Naples area - a list of which can be found <a href="https://www.google.co.uk/?gws_rd=ssl#tbm=lcl&amp;q=naples+florida+malls&amp;rlfi=hd:;si:766501241112570308;mv:!1m3!1d43340.18264062919!2d-81.7447100569824!3d26.17714416471353!3m2!1i1020!2i581!4f13.1">here</a>. We like:
<ul>
 	<li><a href="https://www.coastlandcenter.com/en.html">Coastland Center</a></li>
 	<li><a href="http://www.watersideshops.com">Waterside Shops</a></li>
 	<li><a href="http://www.tin-city.com">Tin City</a> - which is very much a tourist spot in Naples. Don't go here for the big shops. But, it is a specialty shopping district in Naples, Florida. It is open-air, specializing in antiques and local handmade novelties. There are four separate buildings. As well as by car, you can reach Tin City by hiring a boat from the marina and heading up the inland waterways.</li>
</ul>
<strong>Dining</strong>

As well as the on site restaurant Stilts,  there are many great places to eat on and around Marco. There are several restaurants in the open-air shopping mall  opposite the resort. These include <a href="https://www.ristorantedavinci.com/home">Davinci</a> - which is our personal favorite.

<strong>Other things to do</strong>

 	<li>Ride a bike: <a href="http://susansadventures.net/sunshine-bike-tours/">Sunshine Bike Tours</a></li>
 	<li>Hire a boat - then travel to Naples via the inland waterways: <a href="http://rosemarina.com">Rose Marina</a></li>
 	<li>Key West - Either by car (but we recommend you plan an overnight stop there also) or by the<a href="https://www.keywestexpress.net"> Key West Express</a> - right from Marco Island</li>
 	<li>See the beutiful beaches and wildlife of: <a href="https://sanibel-captiva.org">Sanibel Island / Captiva</a></li>
