About Captiva Island
Unspoiled white sand beaches, exotic wildlife and lush subtropical foliage are the distinctive characteristics that you can expect during a trip to the beaches of Sanibel and Captiva Island. Known as Florida's "tropical island getaway," this charming paradise offer visitors with the perfect getaway filled with unique attractions, beach and watersports activities, golf, tennis and watersports, as well as some unusual attractions.
Located on southwest Florida's coast, visitors to Captiva Island fly into Ft. Myers’ Southwest Florida International Airport. From there, a drive along an alluring three-mile-long causeway connects the mainland with Sanibel and Captiva islands. Captiva is a barrier island boasting an incredible ecosystem and water practically everywhere (the Gulf of Mexico on one side and Pine Island Sound on the other), this tiny island (5 miles long and barely 1/2-mile wide) is a haven for outdoor activities. Calm bay waters, pristine white sandy beaches, gentle shores world-famous for shelling, and more than 20 artificial reefs surrounding the islands make for a wide variety of things to do on and off the water. Add that to perfect weather all year-long, and you’ll find this is the perfect CME destination vacation playground.
