DescriptionPine Island Sound (Florida, USA) (39569421580).jpg
(January 2016)
This is Pine Island Sound, a large lagoon just south of Charlotte Harbor along the Gulf of Mexico coast of Florida. On its western and southern sides, this body of water is bordered by barrier islands (e.g., Sanibel Island, Captiva Island, North Captiva Island, Cayo Costa Island). These islands are on the rim of a Late Miocene depression that is now Pine Island Sound. Middle Miocene limestone bedrock was subject to significant dissolution and karst/cave development. The Pine Island Sound area was a large karst depression in the Late Miocene. It is now filled with sediments - most of modern Pine Island Sound is significantly shallow.
