As of April 22, the city of Sanibel has announced the closure of all parking lots at Lighthouse Beach Park to facilitate the replenishment of the berm near the Sanibel Lighthouse by contracted workers. This maintenance work is scheduled to conclude by May 1, just before the onset of sea turtle nesting season.
April 26 Update
The beach restoration at Lighthouse Beach Park is nearly complete, and the parking lots will be temporarily reopened to the public this weekend, April 27th and 28th.
However, the park will close again on April 29th as contractors place more sand. The entire project is expected to be finished by May 1st.
