North Captiva has no bridge and no cars. Everyone gets around by golf cart, bike or on foot, along sandy lanes that connect the Gulf and bay sides of the island.
No cars on the island
You’ll leave your car on the mainland when you board the ferry or charter. Once you’re here, the pace slows down. Sandy lanes link the homes, the beach, the docks and the island’s restaurants.
Golf carts at our homes
Most homes include at least one golf cart for exploring the island, and many offer two. Each home’s page lists what’s included. Our most private residence, on Foster’s Bay, comes with two e-bikes for exploring.
Bikes and walking
Plenty of guests walk or bike to the beach. You can reach Redfish Pass through the preserve by foot or by bike; the path is closed to golf carts.
