About this map

The barrier islands of Lee County are defined by a complex network of channels and shoals where the Gulf of America meets Pine Island Sound. On Captiva, the settlement is concentrated along Captiva Dr and S Seas Plantation Rd, anchored by the Captiva Historic Cem and local post office. To the north, North Captiva Island remains more secluded, reachable by water or via the Salty Approach Airport, with the Cayo Costa State Park Trl winding through the southern tip of Cayo Costa.

Navigational routes like the Intracoastal Waterway and the Florida Circumnavigational Paddling Trl emphasize the area's reliance on water transit. The landscape is dotted with numerous keys and islands, including Buck Key, Josslyn Island, and Hemp Key, separated by tidal passages such as Redfish Pass and Roosevelt Channel. These features illustrate the dynamic nature of Florida's coastline and the long-standing maritime character of these island communities.
