About Marco Island

Hugh Graham-Watson

Also writes for The Telegraph

Marco Island, the largest of Florida’s Ten Thousand Islands, is a sun-soaked gem with sugar-white beaches, turquoise waters, and a laid-back vibe just minutes from Naples. If you're hunting for the perfect hotel, you’re in luck — this island has it all.

Think stylish beachfront resorts with spa days and sunset views, cosy family-friendly stays near Tigertail Beach, and affordable spots ideal for adventure seekers. For luxury, head south; for value and nature, the north end is your go-to.

Marco Island offers a relaxed, sun-soaked Florida escape with beautiful beaches like Tigertail and South Beach, plus hidden spots on nearby islands perfect for swimming, kayaking, or boating along its 100 miles of canals. Beyond the shore, visitors enjoy the Marco Island Historical Museum, local art at the Centre for the Arts, and the mysterious domes of Cape Romano. A stroll through the farmers’ market adds local flavour, and nearby Naples offers even more—from its lively zoo and chic shops to thrilling Everglades adventures.

Hugh's top tip: Boat trips to Keewaydin Island are good fun. Uninhabited and accessible only by water, this barrier island is famed for its beautiful shells and tranquil waters. A great choice for families with young children.
