Island transit with mainland connections
Transportation on Marco Island primarily revolves around personal vehicles, reflecting the area's car-dependent nature. However, some public transit options are available for those looking to explore the island or connect to the mainland without a car.
The nearest bus stop is located on S Collier Blvd, about a 15-minute walk from Shipps Landing. This stop is served by two bus lines: the Express Immokalee - Marco Island route, which connects Marco Island to the mainland, and the Marco Island Circulator, which provides transportation around the island itself.
For those preferring to cycle, Marco Island offers some biking infrastructure, though it may not be as extensive as in more urban areas. The relatively flat terrain of the island can make biking a viable option for short trips, especially to nearby beaches or parks.
Residents and visitors should note that while the island itself is compact, many destinations may require a car for convenient access. Marco Island is connected to the mainland, allowing for travel to nearby cities and attractions.
For longer-distance travel, the nearest airports are Naples Municipal Airport, about 17.5 miles northwest, and Southwest Florida International Airport in Fort Myers, approximately 48 miles north. These airports provide air travel options for residents and visitors.

The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.
