Tour the Suncoast of Florida and see it as it was in the days of Billy Bowlegs. Paddle back into the mangrove hammocks and maybe you will discover his piece of paradise he called the Banana Patch. Relax as you exercise and exercise as you relax, in nature. Take your family on an adventure that is safe and enlightening at the same time. Midnight Pass & Jim Neville Wildlife Preserve Daily. The preserve that surrounds old Midnight Pass is unique. Cars cannot get within miles of there so neither do most people. The surrounding mangrove islands are home to more wild birds then most people ever see in their life. Often seen are Herons, Oyster Catchers, Roseate Spoonbills and of course the ubiquitous Brown Pelican. The swimming in the Gulf at this secluded junction between Siesta Key and Casey Key is the most spectacular beach in Florida with very few people to disturb you as you wile away the hours.
