After our uncomfortable overnight stay at Dog Beach Island, we decide to take our Regal XO through the back channel of the ICW (Intra Coastal Waterway ) from Lovers Key through Matanzas pass and on to Fort Myers Beach. This back channel is a great way to avoid rough weather on the Gulf side and passes numerous waterfront marinas and restaurants like Junkanoo and Snook Bight Marina. We also get to see a number of derelict and fishing boats, stop for an early morning dock and dine and check out some really cool boats like a new Bennetau Antares 11 and an old military PT boat. Join us as we complete our circumnavigate Estero Island on our way back to Cape Coral in SW Florida.
