National Geographic has named Bowman’s Beach one of the “14 Iconic Beaches You Should Visit in Your Lifetime” and USA Today's 10BEST Readers' Choice Awards for 2025, rated Bowman's Beach on Sanibel Island as the No. 6 beach in Florida.
This prestigious recognition places our beloved beach among the most stunning coastal destinations in the world—and we couldn't agree more. Bowman's Beach was the only beach listed that is located in the Continental United States!
For those who’ve already experienced Bowman’s Beach, it’s no surprise.
