We've been on distillery tours...bourbon tours. Not being a bourbon fan, I enjoy those tours for the history and the "art" of bottle and label design, but never the tasting. With this tour I enjoyed it ALL, especially the tasting...and the "touring cocktail". I learned a lot, too. Like, there is a distinct difference between the making of bourbon and rum. Take the tour to learn what that is. Our tour was approximately 45 minutes, ending back in the gift shop for the sampling. We made reservations for the 1 PM tour but arrived early and were able to be included in the noon tour. I don't think we had to pay for the tour. Our touring cocktail was "Wicked Punch" (Coconut Rum, Crystal Rum, Lime Juice, Pineapple Juice, Cranberry Juice, and Ice). It was delicious, and the best way to get us "into" the tour. Check the website for many more recipes. Two of the three sampling flavors were pineapple and key lime. I forgot the third. I enjoyed all three. I wanted to buy several bottles but we were flying and already had full suitcases. They do sell travel bags and provide instructions on how to pack the bottles in suitcases. For my next Florida trip, I'm driving, not flying, and saving lots of trunk space for some flavored rum bottles. The full size rum bottles do need to go in check bags when flying, but Wicked Dolphin does sell small bottles that can be placed in carry-on luggage. The catch is that they are only sold in sets of eight. You can choose any combination of flavors but in groups of eight. The gift shop is full of a wide variety of souvenirs, in addition to their distilled products. It's fun browsing. The staff were friendly and helpful, and really seemed to enjoy their jobs. Outside is a nice sitting area, where you can either wait for your tour to begin or enjoy a drink after the tour. In the evenings they have events that are listed on their website, which can include live music and food trucks. We had other plans, so were not able to enjoy such an event. I highly encourage you to stop by if you're in the Cape Coral area. (The attached photos were taken during the tour. Most of the pics are in the order of the distillation process. The barrels and flavoring pics are at the end of the tour, but they were the first things I saw as I waited to use one of the two restrooms, located in the barrel room. That's why they are a bit out of order.)

There were so many unique vendors and items. We spent a while browsing and found so many interesting items. There was a nice selection of food trucks with a variety of foods. The crepe truck was a personal favorite, the best crepes I’ve had since visiting France. There was a hummus stall that has the best hummus I’ve had in a while. We can’t wait to go back to the market!

We love SunSplash and its because it’s small enough to feel safe in letting your kiddos explore and big enough to make a memorable day. We love to float around the lazy river which allows us, as parents to keep checking in with our eldest while having fun with our youngest who can’t go on all of the slides. It really has a little something for everyone and the new wave pool is a great addition! We highly recommend!

Nice boardwalk path through the mangroves. I went on a cool morning in April. Most of the walk was shaded by the mangrove trees. It was a fairly long walk with benches along the path if you need to rest. The board walk leads to two piers that reach out over the Caloosahatchee River. Nice walk.

This small all volunteer-staffed military museum houses multiple uniforms, artifacts, hats, medals, and other military items. Most items are treasures that have been donated by family members. The gift shoppe is the center part of the museum with all the display items on the outer part. Well worth a visit!

Lovely park with beautiful trails. Very serene and great walking environment. Nearby glover trail still has a partition blocking access to the boardwalk though. Would love to see that amended someday.

Probably the best art Gallery in the area. All local artists. I am/was the featured artist there in August 2023. Three of my pieces.

We went today to see the tour and it was extremely nice. Good to hear about the history from cape coral! Nice guide as well! !

Great local business bringing fantastic beer and a unique environment. Wide selection of beers that range from traditional to very creative, such as flavored by watermelon. Staff is always pleasant. Love the rotating food trucks. These folks are great about collaborating with local businesses and participating in the downtown events and pub crawls.

Nice little river walk park, dog friendly, bathrooms and a fishing pier. Also has a kayak launch that is ADA compliant. Lots of wildlife to see

Very upscale place where the Westin hotel is located along with Pinchers crab shack. We did a little early morning unauthorized fishing off the seawall and caught a nice sized amberjack? I'm not a fish expert.

This park is fantastic, and it's not even finished yet! There's a section that is more for little kids play area that's currently open. There's several picnic tables available, and it is fenced in. Just outside at the fence, there's a lake and a sandy beach! There, there is a small walking trail and barbecue pits in the distance. There's a public restroom, just inside and a facility where you can rent out for a birthday parties that is air conditioned. There's also a preschool located here! Signs state the park is dog friendly. Can't wait for the rest of the playground to be complete.

Lori and Debbie were very gracious and kind and full of information! Beware of the Captain. He will get under your feet because he wants out. See picture below. Very nice morning activity. Recommended.

Picked up the most beautiful sailboat canvas print. 2' x 3". The centerpiece in our home.

Wow, just WOW! Our 8 year old daughter just finished one of the summer camp sessions here and we are just blown away! So is she! She attended the Willy Wonka Session of Theatre Camp, it was a two week session from 9am-4pm and at the end of it they put on the musical. As parents we were blown and I mean blown away by the what they all accomplished in just two weeks! We went to an after party for the kids and it wasn’t just us that were super impressed, all of the parents were just amazed! Our daughter was given a small role in the musical, perfect for her age and experience. Each day that I picked her up, she would be beaming and so pumped by the experience. She has had an interest in theatre since she was young but this just solidified it. The counselors were Highschool graduates who had grown up in the program and loved it, you could tell each day at drop off. There were kids of ALL ages there, our daughter was one of the youngest at 8 years old and kids went all the way to highschool age. Even with that vast age difference, they ALL were kind to each other and accepting. It was awesome for my daughter to see some mentors. She saw older kids helping younger kids and got to experience comradeship at its best. She was taught to practice and study, to get her role right. She had to audition for her role, which gave her insight on being brave, handling nervous energy and how to push through. Theatre camp teaches so many important life lessons, we are so thrilled we found this camp. It turns out that we discovered this camp has been going on for quite awhile, I ran into partner of kids in their 30’s who went to this camp as kiddos. So they obviously know what they are doing and how to be successful! Highly recommend, it will be the highlight to your kids summer as it was for our daughter. She’s begging for next year already!
