Rental boats are not allowed east through the Caloosahatchee River, north to Matlacha, in the Gulf of Mexico, or south to Fort Myers Beach / Lovers Key.

Alcohol is allowed on the boat for passengers to enjoy – it is prohibited for the operator to be under the influence while boating.

Port Sanibel Marina consistently delivers smooth, hassle-free boat rentals with a staff that really knows their stuff. Ryan, Theo, Cheri, and the dock hands get frequent shout-outs for being genuinely helpful, from loading gear to sharing local tips about fishing spots and lunch destinations like Cabbage Key and Cayo Costa. The rental process is refreshingly straightforward, and you'll actually talk to real people when you call with questions. Most boats come back with praise for being clean and well-maintained, though it's worth noting that not all vessels have navigation systems, so download a good GPS app before you head out. The vast majority of renters have wonderful experiences exploring the Sanibel area waters, with families especially enjoying beach stops for swimming and shelling. A few scattered complaints mention boats with maintenance issues or non-functioning electronics, which seems to happen occasionally but isn't the norm based on the positive feedback. The marina was still rebuilding from Hurricane Ian during some of these reviews, yet operations remained solid throughout.
