Our traditional “Luminary Night” community celebration will be postponed one more year, as the SanCap Chamber of Commerce announced that it will wait until the first weekend of December 2024 to host the beloved holiday event as a kickoff to the City of Sanibel’s 50th anniversary.

Although it has been a difficult year, we’ve come away with a renewed sense of gratitude and appreciation for the amazing support we’ve received from our Ocean’s Reach family.

When Hurricane Ian ripped through Southwest Florida last year, one of the most striking images the storm left behind was a partially collapsed Sanibel Causeway.

Our friends at the J.N. “Ding” Darling National Wildlife Refuge credit the Refuge’s namesake, Jay Norwood Darling, for recognizing the importance of art in conveying powerful messages about conservation and the need for protecting our native wildlife and habitats.

As a gathering spot for more than 100,000 people each year, The Sanibel Community House has served as the heart of the island since 1927.
