Activities on North Captiva Island

Time to Relax

Bluefin Beach House has a private heated pool and spa for your enjoyment. The house is just steps from the beach. Enjoy exploring, shelling, or just a day lounging while reading your favorite book on one of Florida's most pristine beaches.

For the best shelling, go one hour before or after low tide and wade out to your calves. Use a sand scoop at the watermark and then look through the scoop for some good finds. Shelling is particularly good after a day of bad weather – the bonus of having a day of rain and wind. Please wash your shells outside. Discard any unwanted shells on the driveway, not in the landscaping. Thanks!
