LOCATION:
North Captiva Island is a hidden gem in southwest Florida off of Cape Coral. It is know for spacious beaches, clear waters and lovely tropical landscapes. This picturesque island, part of the barrier islands of the Gulf of Mexico, offers a tranquil escape from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. With its pristine beaches, lush tropical vegetation, and unique charm, North Captiva Island is a paradise for those seeking a peaceful and natural getaway. It is easily accessible from RSW airport in Fort Myers Florida. From there a shuttle service, taxi or car rental can be arranged to the boat ferry. The island is only accessible by boat.

WILDLIFE:
North Captive is home to a rich variety of wildlife. You can spot dolphins frolicking in the Gulf, manatees slowly navigating the canals (fun to do with them from a kayak), and a diverse range of bird species like ospreys, pelicans, and herons. We also have turtle hatchlings every year and more can be learned about this with the North Captiva Sea Turtle Foundation. The island’s subtropical climate and lush vegetation create a perfect habitat for these creatures.

GUEST ACCESS:
You will be able to self check-in upon arrival. There is an electronic keypad on the front door that will provide access to the home. We will send you the code prior to arrival. Guests have private access to the entire home and property.

OTHER THINGS TO NOTE:
There is no road access to North Captiva Island; you will arrive by ferry, private charter or personal boat. We suggest Island Girl Charters or the Island Club at North Captiva ferry service.
Our home, the beaches and Island Club are in great shape and ready to greet you. However, some places on the island are still rebuilding so you may hear and see construction on the island.
We do have exterior cameras for the security of the property. They do not see inside the home.
Golf carts can be rented through Boats and Fun or Safety Harbor on North Captiva.
