Grocery tip: The closest grocery store to the ferries is Publix Super Market at Calusa Cay (5100 Pine Island Rd, Bokeelia, FL 33922). If you're going grocery shopping prior to getting on the ferry, we recommend packing a few reusable plastic grocery bags in your suitcases. They're easier to load into the bins at the ferry, and you avoid having to ask for 'boat packing' which uses a paper and plastic bag.
