Black Island, where the entrance is located, was said to be the home of pirate Black Augustus, who made the island his home after escaping from prison. It housed several fish stocks, which began in the early 1900s, until this island chain was to be converted into a housing estate on the water in the 60s.

Dredging destroyed the mangrove swamps on these islands, but development never progressed. Instead, the country went to the state that acquired the islands in 1983. Florida joined them in 1996 with the adjoining Carl E. Johnson County Park to make it to today's State Park. There's a small resort on the northeastern tip of Black Island with a private beach.

Now the 1,600-hectare park is a lovely destination for locals and tourists with more than 8 km of trails and 3 km of unspoiled beach. It is also a popular wedding destination, not least because of its romantic name.

Lovers Key State Park

Lovers Key State Park is part of Bonita Springs, but located so far north of Bonita Beach that it is just a stone's throw from Estero Island.

Activities and amenities include shelling, swimming, picnicking, boating and sunbathing, canoeing / kayaking, hiking, biking and wildlife viewing. Manatee (West Indian manatees), porpoises, marsh rabbits and more than 40 species of birds, including spoonbills, ospreys, egrets, bald eagles and kestrels, as well as woodpeckers, hawks, owls and warblers are among the park's wildlife.

You pay $8 entry and have all amenities such as transfer to the beach or toilets right on the beach.

If you are hungry, you can get snacks or if you need a sun lounger and / or a parasol, you can rent them for a fee.

The shuttle service runs continuously and until 4:30 p.m. between the parking lot and the beach section, which is very convenient, especially when you are packed with a cool box and sun loungers.

The beach is clean and the sea is very calm.

A nice section to relax and sunbathe.
