The Wildlife Drive runs right through the nature reserve and is one of the absolute highlights on Sanibel. Sometimes you drive right along the water, other times there are short access points to viewing platforms that offer views into the mangroves. I've seen all sorts of animals along the road: alligators, manatees, snakes, raccoons, turtles, flamingos, all sorts of other birds, fish... The one-way street has a speed limit of 15 mph (25 km/h), which makes driving here very pleasant.
