Where Making Memories is Easy. So is Capturing Them. 

It’s hard to imagine a place capable of pleasing everyone, but South Seas Island Resort is proof that it’s possible. Learn about marine ecosystems or explore the delights of South Seas on an island adventure. Lounge in a private poolside cabana while the kids race down the waterslide, again and again. Enjoy our family recreational center. And make these priceless family moments last forever with some creative beach portraits.



Perfect your Swing, Seaside

Golf and Tennis

The Facilities Will Draw you Here. The Setting Will Make you Keep Playing.

Choose from nine beachfront holes along the beautiful Gulf of Mexico or a championship 18-hole course on Sanibel Island, just a short drive away. Both expertly designed. Top tennis facilities, amenities, and instruction that will have you at the top of your game. Add to that Captiva Island’s year-round balmy weather, clear blue skies, gentle ocean breezes, and the fine island life that South Seas Island Resort has to offer, and you’ve got yourself the perfect golf or tennis vacation.

Adventures on the Waves

Jump in with both feet!

On Captiva Island, water, of course, is all around you. Pine Island Sound on one side, Redfish Pass to the North, surrounded by the Gulf of Mexico. So naturally, we take water adventures very seriously. Any water sport you can imagine, you can find it here. Legendary fishing experiences, hands-on ocean explorations, learn to sail (or race!), or explore our island by kayak, paddleboard, parasail, waverunner, boat, and more. Lessons or rentals. On the water or high above it.

It’s called the great outdoors for a reason

At South Seas Island Resort, you’re part of a 330-acre protected wildlife sanctuary, with bottlenose dolphins, West Indian manatees, great egrets, white ibis, and Cuban anole lizards as your neighbors. And we have fun activities to help you enjoy it all. Beaches world famous for shelling. Kayak tours through mangrove forests. Dolphin adventures and fishing excursions. Exploring Captiva Island by bicycle or on foot is a great way to get around and the perfect pace to take it all in.

Workout or Unwind

Spa and Fitness

Keep Your Balance 

At South Seas Island Resort, there are activities to push you out of your comfort zone. And some that keep you in it. It’s easy to keep to your usual fitness regimen when you’re doing it in a tropical island setting. Yoga in the studio, on the beach, or on the water. A fitness center that overlooks the stunning marina. A running trail that has you keeping pace with extraordinary scenery and wildlife. And when the hard work is all said and done, a beautiful salon and spa is at your service.
