Boats And Fun - Captiva

Literally the highlight of our trip. Matias was the absolute best. He found one random dolphin then all of a sudden we had 6 or 7 dolphins riding the waves of the boat. Knows all the history around the island… very respectful of all wildlife. He was the absolute best

Rented a paddleboard for a week and a boat for a day. The paddle board was nice, but the real highlight was boating for the day. We have lake boating experience but going on the Intercoastal Waterway was a first time for us. Staff was very helpful. They gave good activity suggestions and most importantly made sure we were competent out on the water! Highly recommend!

My family and I had a wonderful experience at Boats and Fun on North Captiva/Upper Captiva in July 2023. The front desk staff were friendly, informative, and helpful. We rented a paddleboard for the week (to keep at our rent house, which was super nice) and chartered a boat with a captain for a 3-hour scenic cruise and shelling adventure. We saw many dolphins and found zillions of sand dollars and shells. Having a captain who knows the area is hugely valuable when searching for ocean treasure!

I was charged for a full week’s rental and only used the golf cart 4 days. The island has flooded roads and the company knows this and rents golf carts which can be disabled if water gets into the electric system. This happened to us and the company would not provide a replacement or refund.

Have rented a few carts for the day on North Captiva. The process with smooth and the carts are in good shape and worked perfectly. It is a bit expensive, but then again, you are on an island that is only accessible by boat. Will rent again.
