THREE STEPS TO ARRIVE ON NORTH CAPTIVA ISLAND TRAVEL TO NORTH CAPTIVA: STEP 1: Travel to North Captiva should begin with checking on great flights to one of the major international airports nearby. SW Florida International (RSW) is a quiet and convenient airport to traverse. Mostly on One level and very easy to access the parking areas, navigating it is truly a pleasure. Tampa (TPA), Sarasota (SRQ ), and Fort Lauderdale (FLL) are a good distance away to the North or East, but airfare deals often make it rewarding to travel up to 2 hours by car down to Pine Island. BY CAR STEP 2: From the South or North of I-75 To Pineland Marina: Island Girl Charters From I-75 (exit 143) or US 41, head west on Pine Island Rd. (State Road 78), then take a right on Stringfellow Rd. (State Road 767) in Pine Island Center. Three miles down, take a left on Pineland Road. This will turn into Waterfront Drive and you'll see the Marina on the left, nestled on the shores of Pine Island Sound. *Important Information: When driving or taking the airport shuttle from Ft Myers International (RSW), allow approximately 2 hour drive time to Pineland Marina. If you are Grocery Shopping, please account for an additional 45 minutes and make sure you arrive at the Welcome Centers or Marinas at least 30 minutes before your scheduled water taxi departure.
