Getting Here...By Car
Interstate 75:
Take Exit 131 (Daniels Parkway) west to Summerlin
Road. Turn left on Summerlin Road and follow it to
the Sanibel Causeway (a $6 toll). Drive across and
onto Sanibel Island. At the four-way stop sign at
Periwinkle Way, either a right or left turn will
lead you to beaches, shops, accommodations, etc. To
reach Captiva, turn right on Tarpon Bay Road and
left on Sanibel-Captiva Road. Drive about eight
miles. Cross Blind Pass bridge and you're on Captiva.
That takes another 15 to 30 minutes.
Interstate 95:
If you're driving into Florida from the North via
Jacksonville, take I-95 south to I-4; take I-4 west
to I-75, then follow the directions above. If you're
on Florida's east coast and choose to bypass the
Orlando and Tampa areas (both off I-4), take I-95
south to Fort Lauderdale and follow the signs
directing you to I-75 west (toward Naples).
Car Rentals:
You'll need a valid driver's license, proof of auto
insurance and a major credit card. (Some rental
agencies have minimum age requirements, too.) Nearly
all major car rentals are available at Southwest
Florida International Airport; it's best to make
reservations before you arrive.
