This week will take us to one of America’s most favorite beach spots: South Florida. Three miles off the coast from Miami lies the very remote and extremely secluded Fisher’s Island. Fisher’s Island was created in 1905 and measures a tiny .3 square miles. Those wishing to travel to the Island can only arrive via boat or helicopter, so tourists are few and far between, lending beach goers a nice break from the crowds of Miami.

Fisher Island Hotel and Resort is located within an even more private enclave of the already very secluded Island. Needless to say, the beaches of Fisher Island Hotel and Resort are private and sparsely visited. Accommodations at the Hotel and Resort are varied, and guests have the option of renting private residences with up to three bedrooms, courtyard villas, junior suites, or simple guestrooms.

Guests of Fisher Island Hotel and Resort have access to the large and fully equipped 22,000 square foot Spa, Salon, and Fitness Center. Additionally, the renowned Fisher Island Marina is state of the art, with an array of yachts and sail boats for rent. Guests interested in fishing, swimming, or simply relaxing on the open water should not pass up the opportunity for adventure on the Florida coast.

For those who plan on spending time walking through the blue waters on the coast of Fisher Island, a sturdy and sleek pair of water shoes is a must. Never cut your foot on a rock in the ocean again with a pair of great water shoes. For those guests more interested in land activities, Fisher Island Hotel and Resort boasts an amazing 9 hole golf course with a large club house. Don’t worry if your golf game is in need of a little help—Fisher Island Hotel and Resort also offers a range of golf instruction courses. The Resort also contains 18 tennis courts with grass, hard, and clay play surfaces.

But for those guests who just want to relax—Fisher Island and Resort’s private beach is just what the doctor ordered.
