Its vacation time, time to put the clocks and the schedules away and live life on the fly. Or maybe it's time to rest and relax, take things easy and let other people do all the worrying. If you're looking for a tropical climate and an easy going atmosphere, consider going through Captiva Island rentals to plan your vacation down south.
Captiva Island itself is a barrier island, part of a string of sand islands that protect the shores of Florida off the Gulf of Mexico. Captiva Island used to be a part of its sister island Sanibel, which is located to the south east. During a particularly harsh hurricane, a storm surge washed out the weakest link between the two islands. Over the years this filled in but a dredging project in 2009 helped to recreate what is now called Blind Pass. The Sanibel opportunities for vacationers are joined and yet separate from Captiva island rentals.
The island of Captiva has its own little town, right where the long stretch of beach ends. This is more of a village of course, even though it has a wide range of restaurants and other necessary amenities for residents and travelers. Tourists can rent a lot of things from the Captiva Island rentals available all year round.
Long ago the Calusa Indians traversed this string of islands. In modern times, vacationers and tourists can enjoy the same beautiful and natural sights that the natives once laid claim to. Daily cruises are offered, themed around seeing the natural settings, having lunch or watching the same sunsets the Indians once did.
Shelling is the practice of viewing, inspecting and then choosing what sea shells one wants to collect from a beach. So many people enjoy Captiva for this purpose, spending hours picking shell after shell. Another outdoor hobby people here partake in is birding or bird watching. By renting in-line skates or golf carts from the many Captiva island rentals available, people can go in search of rare birds and cruise around the local scenery at their leisure.
Many of the timeshare or rental homes that are available through Captiva island rentals face out to the beautiful Gulf of Mexico. The beach is only a few yards away. Many families choose Captiva island rentals to spend their holidays. With condos, town homes, cottages and villas to choose from, for a week, a month or a season, it's easy to see why.
Two bedroom rental homes can house six people. Three bedroom homes can house eight people. But this is called the Gold Coast by many the world over and that is because as well as luxury homes for rental, there are also multi-million dollar complexes. These can house fourteen people or more enjoying the peaceful moments found best in island rentals such as Bali Hi.
The quiet and secluded beaches, kept for those who are staying in the Captiva island rentals nearby, are just waiting for people to come play. The entire island has an atmosphere of peace and serenity all year round. If someone is more of a sports enthusiast, there is of course golfing, jet-skis and parasailing, as well as surfing.
