NORTH CAPTIVA ISLAND
Thank you for inquiring about "Winterhaven" bounded by the Gulf of Mexico on one side and Pine Island Sound. We are on a barrier island just west of Fort Myers, Florida. We have 500 acres of state wildlife preserve ... offering world renown shelling, subtropical foliage and trees, a look at over 100 species of migrating nesting birds as well as endangered marine life. Dolphins and manatee play off our shores on this private island. We have neither public boat docks or public facilities. There are no bridges to connect us to the mainland. We are a vanishing breed, one of the last true out islands in the United States. We have 4 miles of the most beautiful, serene beaches to be found anywhere on this earth.
