Join us as we spend 2 days exploring Sanibel and Captiva Islands one year after the Florida islands were devastated by Hurricane Ian. We'll show you the current condition of both Sanibel and Captiva as we drive up and down the Florida islands, stopping at several beaches and businesses along the way.

Complimentary accommodations allow us to spend the majority of our filming budget by supporting the local businesses.

    Explorcation is hands down the best travel channel for all things Florida! 🌴🌞 Every video feels like an adventure waiting to happen. The way they capture the beauty, culture, and hidden gems of the Sunshine State is truly remarkable. Explorcation has become my go-to source for Florida travel inspiration. Keep exploring and sharing those incredible journeys! 🌎🚗✨
  • I lived on Sanibel Island in the mid-80's and loved living there. I want to move back and am waiting for the perfect time. Most of the beautiful foliage has disappeared with Charlie and Ian which breaks my heart because the Australian Pines were the true beauty of the Islands. Thank you for giving us an update.
  • @jayf6525
    Been over to the island many times. Glad to see it bouncing back.
  • I’ve been to Sanibel and Captiva. My husband and I travel to Florida often. We where actually stayed on Sanibel Island and had to evacuate because of Ian. I’m so happy to see that the island is still looking green🌴
  • @rhondalyn100
    I enjoyed this video SO MUCH this chilly morning in middle Tennessee! The beauty of Sanibel and Captiva certainly shines through and oh! my! the food and drink are, as usual, amazing to see. Thanks for your hard work to show us non-Floridians how gorgeous Florida beach communities are! 🙂
  • @mariond.1603
    I love Captiva Island. It looks much better now. We visited from Germany before the Hurrican couple of times. This place stole my heart 🌴🌊.
  • @Aestheterica
    I find myself always smiling while watching your informative videos. I absolutely love seeing all of the various Florida beach towns that I have already visited and look forward to trying out new beaches and restaurants you share about 🙂🌴
  • Sanibel and Captiva look like a fantastic place to visit. The food looks great, and the beach with the dolphins is amazing.
  • You two are always so positive. 😀Any day on a ship is better than a work day.
  • @PurrrltheCat
    Was on the islands 2013. Glad to see it’s coming back. Your videos are very well produced. Thank you
  • Really happy to see that you’re giving a lot of different businesses your business and not just one or two. After going down there for over 35 years one or twice a year, we are heading back this Thursday and it will be interesting but we’re anxious to help people out and get back to the beach!
  • Sandwiches look very good there! Sanibel and Captiva are definitely on our future radar now...thanks for the info @
  • @katyhiatt3608
    You two are amazing I really love watching your videos. Thank you so much. It it past time for me to come back home.
  • @MrTmiket0007
    Thanks so much for sharing another wonderful video like always, I really enjoy the beach and awesome restaurants 🏖️👍
  • Electric Jetboards look like fun...now if I were about 30 years younger!!
  • Another great video from you two...Now have another area to add to our Places To Go In Florida. Prayers continue for those affected by the hurricane and for even better days ahead for them!
