Beaches

North Captiva Island is well known for its gorgeous white sand beaches and shelling. There are approximately 5 miles of beaches on North Captiva Island. You can walk for miles without seeing any sign of civilization, only yourself and the footprints you leave in the sand.

Shelling

North Captiva Island boasts the best shelling in North America! Thousands of gorgeous shells can be found on the island.

Wildlife

Although partially developed, most of the island remains a State Wilderness Preserve. This means that only the north end of the island has homes, the rest is all untouched, all natural tropical beauty. This also means that in the residential north end, building codes are very strict. There are no high rises, no resorts, and no tourist destinations. There are also no paved roads and no cars. Electric powered golf carts and bicycles are the only means of transportation around the island. Upon visiting North Captiva, you will find that privacy, seclusion, and nature are the way of life on this island.


Weather

The weather on North Captiva Island is like no other you have ever experienced. Bright sunshine, and bright blue skies are all that can be seen for miles, along with palm trees, of course.
