There's no better way to explore Southwest Florida than by water. The coast is vast and diverse, from Cabbage Key and Useppa to Boca Grande and Cayo Costa. The waters are beautiful, full of history and Captiva Cruises has a menu of excursions to suit almost any taste. Cruises depart mostly from Jensen's Marina on Captiva Island. Enjoy educational tours guided by experts on wildlife, sharks, history and much more. There are wildlife-spotting tours, seashell-hunting tours, dolphin and sunset cruises and day long trips to unspoiled barrier islands. The staff is welcoming and a wealth of knowledge when it comes to both the land and sea of the area. It's an activity that the entire family can embrace and enjoy.
