It will come as no surprise to anyone that fishing and boating are a way of life in Boca Grande. At the southern tip of Gasparilla Island lies Boca Grande Pass, a deep natural channel where the waters of Charlotte Harbor lead to the Gulf of Mexico creating a productive coastal ecosystem. Boca Grande is home to a fleet of charter boats available year-round for Pass, offshore, back-bay, eco-tours and sightseeing excursions. Those traveling with their own boat will find several marinas offering protected anchorage options as wells as dockage.
