Show Notes

Sanibel Island Lighthouse is the first skeleton lighthouse that we've covered, and is known for shelling, the "Sanibel Stoop", and a story of resilience. The lighthouse in its deconstructed form once rested on the ocean floor, and against all odds it refuses to return. Listen in for the story of a lighthouse that stood strong through Florida's worst storms.
