Review & FAQ:
The tiny town of Matlacha has a thriving arts community, but it also has all the charm of a friendly rural fishing village. It is an excellent destination for outdoor pursuits; hikers can take advantage of the Calusa Heritage Trail, kayakers can paddle around the peaceful waters of the inlet, and cyclists will be pleased to discover the bike trail that runs all the way through the town.
Visitors can enjoy an excellent seafood dinner at any of the restaurants in town, but they can also catch their own dinner by fishing, shrimping, crabbing, or clamming.
