Old Marco Waterfront Homes and Lots

At the northern end of picturesque Marco Island, you'll find Old Marco.  The area is rich in Marco Island history and is one of several areas of the island where world-class luxury homes have been built on the waterfront.  All of the property is water direct meaning that there are no lower bridges that must be negotiated on your way to the Gulf of Mexico.

Old Marco is loved for its quiet peaceful atmosphere, walkability and quick access to the Gulf.  Residents are within walking distance or a short bike ride to some of the best restaurants on the island. Don't miss the Snook Inn for a great burger on the water.  Also, Marek's is a fine dining restaurant in the historical Capt. Collier House.

Historically, Old Marco was the site of Marco's only significant archaeological dig.  The Marco Cat was found here which depicts a half man-half panther creature that is believed to have been sculpted between 500 and 800 a.d. by the Calusa Indians.  It was discovered by Frank Cushing during a Smithsonian sponsored expedition in 1896.

Old Marco is a fantastic part of the best place on earth to live.  It is quintessential Marco.  The lifestyle here is like nowhere else in the world. Manatee and dolphin watching will surely become your new hobby when you live here.

Old Marco and River Area Condos

Most of Marco Island's boating condos are located in the South End. However, the condos that occupy the northern end of Bald Eagle Drive are some of our favorites. Pier 81 is a luxury high-rise with some of the best views around. The marina here is top-notch and provides fast access to the Gulf or to Snook Inn for dinner. Riverside offers economical condos also with great views. Hang a left at Snook Inn and you're on Palm Drive where you'll find Ville de Marco. Ville de Marco East has a wonderful Hawaiian vibe with lush landscaping while Ville de Marco West has perhaps the best view on the island.

Boating and Fishing From Old Marco

Old Marco homes and condos are all "water-direct." This means your boat size won't be restricted by bridge height. Plus, you can be in the Gulf in a few minutes from just about any property here.

We're famous for the fishing here so there's not much I can say other than, Old Marco homes and condos will allow you to get to your secret spot really quick. You can take your catch home or have one of the great restaurants of Old Marco cook it up for you.

Old Marco Restaurants

The most famous Old Marco restaurant, and maybe the most famous on the entire island has to be Snook Inn. Located at the north end of Bald Eagle Drive, Snook always has a busy, fun atmosphere, cold beer and the best grouper sandwich around. Marek's is a fine dining restaurant that actually occupies Capt. Bill Collier's historical home. Old Marco Pub is a great place to grab a beer or good seafood.
