Why Marco Island
Pristine Beaches, Protected Beauty
Marco Island's beaches benefit from careful preservation efforts. The sand is white and soft, the water is that perfect Gulf of Mexico turquoise, and the shoreline remains remarkably unspoiled. Your wedding photos will capture a Florida that many people don't know exists. View our Marco Island gallery.
