"The vibe here on the island is peace, relaxation and fun. everybody seems to have a boat and everyone seems to love fishing. Lots of great restaurants to eat at and able to go to by boat. Most people here are adults and they are very few children except for some grandchildren."

"If you are really looking for somewhere to get away from it all, Pine Island is the place. There are ZERO traffic lights, it's quiet, and there are no high rises or major commercial outfits on the island. This island was thankfully left alone in the ramping up of virtually every other developed coastline. You hear and see the bald eagles, seahawks, pelicans, dolphin and manatee, something again which is rare in other communities. Tropical nurseries populate the island, the fishing is out of this world and the rest you get from the hustle and bustle is unmatched. Though remote, you have everything close by that is a necessity or recreationally wanted: your island grocery store, hardware store, liquor store, a few banks, a gas station, art galleries, more than 12 restaurants and bars dot the island, 4 marinas, 2 day spas, more than a few bait/tackle shops, kayak/bicycle/boat rentals, and the island is also home to the most preserves in the Southwest area which affords great hiking and exploring."
