Sanibel's first-known settlers were the Calusa, a powerful and well-organized Indian tribe who dominated the majority of the land in Southwest Florida more than 2500 years ago. The Calusa were proficient in creating canals and waterways, which allowed them to live primarily on a native seafood diet.
