Pine Island Airport has been called the Lee
Islands best kept secret. Nested in
the
center of the northern end of Pine Island and surrounded by small farms
of Palm Trees, Lychee Nut, Mangos and many other exotic and organic
farms.
Of course the island itself is surrounded by some of the best
protected fishing areas for Tarpon, Red Fish, Snook, and
yes of course Dolphin, Turtle and Ray.
The airstrip runs east and west and is 2700' X 120' with a slight
crown which keeps it high and dry in the worst storm. There are 10 tie
downs are at the west end of the hangars. Flying in is always a
beautiful site.
There
are seven "T" hangars and we have zoning for 13 more. The airport is
also zoned for a house and a barn in addition to the hangars.
Currently
there is a doublewide office / tenant home on the property. It is a 2
bedroom 2 bath with living room and den. Junior is the airport manager
and if I sell he is very interested in staying. He does all the mowing,
maintenance and is good at collections and security.
Pine Island is a Boaters Paradise and
when you fly over it you will think you have found heaven. The water is
deep enough to boat and shallow enough to see the bottom in most cases
which make for a very beautiful flight every time. I have flown
over it hundreds of times and still enjoy it.
Useppa
Island is one of the nearby Islands just west of the airport.
It is home to many of the rich and famous as we say and is a beautiful
private club type island. A little slice of paradise. The grounds are
outstanding with natural vegetation. You could go anywhere in the
Caribbean but it is only a short boat ride from Pineland Marina. It's
basically a private Island for members. If you are lucky enough to rent
a house for a night. It's a very special place. It comes with a hefty
price, but worth it. There are many islands that surround Pine Island
and give it good protection from possible storms.
Matlacha
from the North just east of the airport. Matlacha is the
causeway over to Pine Island. It is known as a "Drinking little village
with a fishing problem" The draw bridge has become a very popular
fishing spot for local residents. It has been nicknamed "The fishingest
bridge in the world".

The gateway to Pine Island, Matlacha from the east
looking over Pine Island. Matlacha is an Artsy area much like the
Keys years ago. The residents of Matlacha and Pine Island are
friendly and there is always something going on. Groups like the
Kiwanis, Moose, Elks, American Legion, Mariners and yes we even have a
few hundred Hookers and they are proud Hookers. Ask anybody about our
Hookers. Even the Mariners support the Hookers on Pine Island.
