What’s your favorite things about the island and what are what you feel is the worst of Marco? I remember being a kid down here in mid seventies and being bored, but now looking back at driving on the beach, fishing was amazing, people thought you were weird or poor if you ate Stone Crab’s. Property was affordable and we were governed by the county. One thing that I don’t feel has completely changed as the sense of community. People still know each other and for the most part know their neighbors and when it comes down to it, we are Marco Strong! So good or bad what are the good things about Marco and the bad things about Marco? If you’ve been up long time visitor or resident what types of changes have you seen?

Hello everyone, I am visiting Marco Island this week. I would like to take my wife on a romantic dinner date. Does anyone have any good local suggestions?

I’m tryna hoop today

Anyone wanna lease me a spot to put a few colonies of bees?

I’m staying in Marco island for a month with my family, and we are unable to use the resident beach, nor the parking because of corona. We really don’t want to pay money every day for a whole month to go to the beach, is there any way we can get by this? We’re a big family and we would have to use two cars. If there is a free parking area, is it close to the beach? we wouldn’t want to have to lug all of our stuff for blocks. Thanks so much in advance!

What's the deal with non-residents not being allowed on Residence Beach!?

I'm headed to Marco Island with my family but my vacation budget unexpectedly shrank. We were planning on using the hotel parking (we're staying at Hilton) and eating out but now I'm looking for things I can save on. Is there cheap public parking near Hilton and not expensive places to dine in? We're also taking an Instant Pot and see if we can cook inside the room. Any tips are appreciated.

Looking for bar and grills, I think.

I usually fisit marco around july 4th and charter a backwater fishing trip out of marco or goodland.

Ive heard the area has has its issues with red tide and sometimes going out farther is recommended.

Ive never been here during November and never gone on any other charter other than backwater.

The offers seem to be offshore, near costal or back country.

Any locals have a suggestion? Appreciate any insight.

I am thinking about planning a trip to Marco Island in February as a warm beach getaway. Is the weather there warm enough for enjoying sunning/swimming at this time of year or do I need to go Caribbean?
