This magical place offers some of the most festive events throughout the holiday season. From boat and golf-cart parades to holiday singalongs, and just the way folks generously decorate their homes and businesses, enjoy Christmas in paradise on the lovely Captiva Island.

Marie Selby Botanical Gardens offers a gorgeous show after the sun sets for its annual Lights in Bloom event. Visit the University Town Center for holiday shopping while wandering through the magical display of more than four million lights bent into interesting shapes. Don't forget to include a trip to St. Armands Circle for some delicious confections from Kilwin’s, and eat them on a festive trolley ride tour.
- Homosassa: Every year this sweet town full of festive folks transforms into a magical winter wonderland. Enjoy the annual celebration of lights at the Ellie Schiller Homosassa Springs Wildlife State Park which includes an amazing synchronized light and sound show and yummy seasonal refreshments.
