“Island Hoppers” Songwriter Festival

Sanibel Inn

Looking for a reason to come visit the island? We’ve found it. From September 19th to 28th, songwriters from all of the country gather in Lee County to put on one of the top ten music festivals in America. Scattered in different venues through out the island, you’ll experience both intimate and crowd filled performances. In September, it still feels like summer here. The average water temperature at the beaches is 82 degrees, while the average air temperature ranges from 73 to 86 degrees. So, come plunge into the Gulf and soak up the sun on our 600 feet of resort beach front. Make the summer last and come experience the “Island Hoppers Songwriter Fest” now in its 11th Year!
