From Kansas Heartland to Captiva's Shores: Our Island Journey
We're a spirited family from Kansas, driven by fun and a thirst for adventure! Back in 2008, during a family getaway, we were captivated by the enchanting beauty of Captiva, Florida's islands. The flat landscapes of Kansas gave way to the allure of the ocean. Fast forward three years, and our heartland spirit led us to owning a stunning home on Captiva, cherished both as our personal haven and a rental delight.
In 2018, a desire for a slower pace prompted us to seek anew. Enter 2019, and the quest brought us to Upper Captiva, where we discovered our haven, Gulf Swells & Sea Shells. Countless summers have etched memories into our kids' hearts on these very shores. The joy of collecting diverse shells on the beach is a shared family delight. And oh, the thrill of boating and fishing while surrounded by captivating wildlife – it's a sight to behold!
From heartland to island, our journey continues, and we invite you to experience the beauty and simplicity of these shores with us.
