Gasparilla Island serves as the focal point of this maritime landscape, where the southern tip meets the deep waters of the Boca Grande Channel. The village of Boca Grande is characterized by its residential grid and proximity to the lighthouse, while the industrial legacy of the area is preserved in the Old Railroad Grade that runs the length of the island. This corridor, once vital for the phosphate trade, leads south to the settlement at Port Boca Grande.
