Gulfside Beach, also called Algiers Beach, is one of the smaller beaches on beautiful Sanibel Island. It has wonderful white sand, colorful shells, and clear blue water. It also has restrooms, outside showers, picnic areas, and grills. The beach is located between a row of condominium complexes and luxury hotels, so is often crowded and lively. It is one of several pet-friendly beaches on Sanibel Island. The part of the beach designated for dogs is located near a nature preserve. The dogs can enjoy the sand and surf but have to be on a leash. Dog owners can take advantage of picnic tables in the shade and restrooms.
