North Captiva was born in 1921 when a hurricane separated us from our neighbor, Captiva Island, to the south and no bridge was ever built to connect us. North Captiva is the ultimate in private island experiences. It is four miles long, 1/2 mile wide, 700 acres, located 6 miles off the coast of Florida and is accessible only by ferry or boat. The only “crowd” you’ll encounter on the beautiful, shell strewn beaches are birds and crabs! Ospreys can be seen diving for dinner daily on the beach, or in the trees enjoying their catch. You will also find an abundance of tropical breezes, Florida sunshine, local island hospitality, and manatees. Dolphins can be seen feeding daily from the beach. The south end of the island boasts a 350 acre State Preserve, part of the Florida State Park system, providing sanctuary for many migratory and nesting birds, including American Bald Eagles. Hiking trails through the preserve bring guests to more of the island’s pristine beaches. One gift left by Hurricane Ian is wider beaches that allow islanders to walk all the way to Redfish Pass and wave at Captiva Island on the other side. Other island activities include kayak, boat and paddle board rentals, plus tours available for fishing, shelling, dolphin watching and island hopping. For relaxation, enjoy downtime at our pool or the beach. There are also massage appointments available to book at home or beachfront.
