The History of Marco Island In the mid 1500s, when Spain was exploring most of Florida, the Spaniards stumbled upon a large island which contained two cool artisan springs located near what is now know as Caxambas Pass. The island became a favourite place to fill casks with fresh water for their return trip to Spain. It eventually became know to all future sailors as La Isla de San Marco named for Saint Mark, the christian evangelist and traditional author of the second gospel in the bible. This name over the years was condensed to Marco Island. 2,000 years before Christ, the ancestors of the fierce, warlike Calusa Indians inhabited this remote island. Calusas were thought to be seven feel tall sporting three foot high ceremonial headgear thus contributing to their fierce appearance. In 1870 W T Collier brought his wife and nine children to Marco Island. In 1896, his son, William D. Captain Bill Collier opened a 20 room hotel that is known today as the Olde Marco Inn and still stands in Old Marco.

Dining Around Marco Island is blessed with many dining opportunities with every cuisine in mind. From Mexico to Japan you are catered for and a great many restaurants offer lively entertainment. As the island is so small, only 24 miles square, nothing is far away so traveling around is very easy. For those of you who enjoy a couple of drinks taxis cost around $5.00 a trip which is very reasonable.
