Sanibel Captiva Sports Travel

Whether you have the urge to swat a tennis racquet, swing a golf club, steer a canoe, ride a bike, or go waterskiing, you'll find all types of outdoor sporting activities at your fingertips on both islands. South Seas Resort in Captiva Island has 18 tennis courts and 18 swimming pools, as well as rental canoes, kayaks, sailboats, and powerboats. 'Tween Waters Inn has a marina with boat and bicycle rentals, year-round fishing, beach volleyball, and tennis.

In Sanibel Island, Sundial Beach Resort rents windsurfers, scuba diving equipment, catamarans, and sailboats. It has a jogging trail and can arrange golf outings. The island has two public golf courses.

Adventurous souls may want to take leave of the beach paradise and embark on an Everglades Day Safari. Departing from Sanibel, the safari takes you on a search for Florida manatees, gators, and crocodiles and whizzes you through the River of Grass in an airboat.
