Situated on the scenic western shore of Pine Island, the center encompasses 67 acres at the heart of the Pineland archaeological site, offering visitors the opportunity to tour the internationally significant Calusa Heritage Trail and learn about the culture and environment of the Calusa people. With a mission to preserve and educate, the Randell Research Center aims to share the rich history of the Calusa, once the most powerful people in south Florida, who left behind massive shell mounds and engineered canals. Through self-guided visits and educational programs, visitors can explore the site, gaining insights into the ancient civilization that thrived on the abundant fish and shellfish found in the estuaries of southwest Florida.Generated from the website
