The south end of the island is beautiful state protected preservation land, accessible by foot, home to turtles and birds. You can watch dolphins, manatee and even otters on the bay side of the island often!
We fell in love with North Captiva Island on our first visit and are thrilled to be able to share Second Star with our guests. It is a very special place for us where we watch the sun set over palm trees from our balcony, listen to the soft waves on endless miles of beaches, feel the sand between our toes and smell salt water and exotic flowers year round while sitting and watching the wildlife. Please be sure to help preserve the beauty of this enchanted tropical hideaway by only observing its treasures.
We are happy to answer your questions and help you to make travel arrangements to and from the island.
