The South Seas Resort and Marina on Captiva Island is open and has been beautifully redesigned and decorated in the devastating aftermath of Hurricane Charley.
The South Seas Resort is truly a paradise and a must see again and again.
Legend has it that the famous pirate, Jose Gaspar, held many of his beautiful female captives on this lush and once remote tropical island. Today, Captiva Island is home to beautiful beaches, fantastic fishing, fine dining and some if the finest sunsets on the west coast of Florida.
Options are many as the resort offers a wide selection of accommodations and price ranges. You can also
hunker down on your boat at the marina. The marina can accommodate boats between 25
and 120 feet and offers a host of amenities: laundry, showers, fuel, pump out, wireless Internet, gourmet marina store, two excellent restaurants, heated pool, complete fitness center, and access to a world-class beach complete with beach bar and chair and towel service – all within walking distance!
Cruisers who want to have lunch at the resort are reminded that reservations are not accepted and
dockage is on a first come first served basis. The Dock Master advises boaters to call ahead for availability.

I was born a commercial fisherman's daughter in Cortez, an old fishing village off the west coast of Florida where you can still experience "Old Florida" and get a really good grouper sandwich. I went to school and became an anesthetist, after privileged years of practice, I jumped ship to work in the family business - Cannons Marina. I love my job and the view. I am crazy about my dog. Being out on the water is magical. I still get giddy every time I see a dolphin. Often I brag that I had the opportunity to swim alongside a humpback whale - it was freaky and pretty amazing. Fishing for tarpon and marlin make me happy. My life is no doubt boating, but I also love paddle-boarding cooking and travel.
