Thanks! You may see us there!!!
That aged well 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂you lost!😂😂😂😂
I surf multiple days a week on Fort Myers Beach, but I am always out by myself. Do you all have a community or surf club that I could link up with?
I just spoke with Shane he said to message him. They have a group that surf regularly. Hope this helps. @Shane_antalick
Thanks!
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂biggest?😂😂😂😂over 700,000 registered boats in that area and only a tiny amount shows up😂😂😂😂😂this aged well😂😂😂you lost. You really did. Then you attacked our democracy because youre big babies. 😂😂😂😂😂you will lose again🇺🇸💙🇺🇸💙🇺🇸💙🇺🇸💙
L❤VE it. TRUMP 2024 🇺🇸
TRUMP 2024 🇺🇸
If you're a Democrat, do you think these are all bad people and they aren't having any fun? Do you wonder why there has never been a boat parade for a Democrat candidate?
This makes captiva island look like a much tackier place than it actually is
Why is this necessary? Have there been boat parades for other republican. Candidates?
H😮aters
S/V DEDICATED !!!!!! ⚓⛵⚓⛵⚓⛵⚓⛵⚓⛵⚓⛵
Why ruin boating in a beautiful paradise with politics? Go boating to get away from all the BS going on in politics.
The oil may work let me try that.
Whipes don't work
Yeah that event certainly put the intelligence of dolphin and other marine life way above human intelligence by A LOT. Trump is running scared and it is great he finally admitted he was not a Christian at the recent Christian faith rally a couple days ago.
Cool 😎 🇺🇸
We do not want to hear about how expensive gas is to operate your expensive boats!!
Expensive boats ! I guess the economy isn’t that bad after all.
ick
Not into politics, but as a boat fan that must have been really cool to see
Trump 2024 #MAGA

Should they be out looting and rioting like libs do?
Gotta love a red Florida!!! Trump baby Trump!!!

Yet another CNN watcher
Dictator? You’ve got to be kidding.
@@Sconniegal It takes so little with you people lol
@@patriciapetersen2015 You make no sense.
Obviously you don’t know what makes a dictator. Please read about Cambodia’s Pol Pot, China’s Moa Zedong, Iraq’s Saddam Hussein, Germany’s Adolf Hitler, Soviet Union’s Joseph Stalin and more. Trump was president for 4 years and we had the most prosperous economy. Look what Brandon has done to our country. You are a fool like many who know nothing of history.
Unfortunately....most will never know how great the surf used to be. Back in the 80's and 90's there were little "dogbone" jetties that lined up with the power poles on land. There were many great spots like the pilings at the place were the road turns away from the beach heading towards South Seas plantation. Broke like a perfect right point on cold front swells. When the front would pass and the wind switched offshore...that spot could be head high to overhead on sets that reeled for well over a 150 yards...while the south jetty in Venice would be waist high and mushy....and crowded on the same swell ! Then heading towards blind pass there was a spot called the "Nut Hut" ....only a few locals ever knew about and surfed that spot. There was a grass shack in someones backyard ...and the let us park in an empty lot they owned nextdoor. Not visible from the beach and the only place around where the water went from 12' deep to 2-3 feet deep in a short fashion. Absolutely board and bone breaking barrels that were dangerous at low tide and epic on an incoming tide with a NW swell and NE winds. Nobody ever surfed Blind pass or south of there becuase of how good north of blind pass got. This may come as a surprise....Captiva was also heavily localised back then. And the 10-15 guys who surfed there wouldn't let anyone catch a wave at all.
How cool! Thanks for sharing those awesome memories!

Nice! New staff member?

Thank you! She is away at University most of the time.
THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!❤❤❤❤
You're welcome!!
So hurricane can demolish properties in spot just like a tornado is that correct? Where is I was thinking a hurricane if it came towards you, everyone around you would be in danger too.
The end that was demolishing you said they’re gonna put something else there, did the people have insurance like flood insurance or hurricane insurance or is it just a great loss?
July 3,2023- I was just researching the island and I asked some questions like are there any alligators in Sanibel Bay and they said yes then I asked if any alligators ever wander into some of the beautiful neighborhoods there and they also said yes is that why everybody has their pool screen in, it’s such a beautiful place and I was checking the prices of houses for 2024 but they are the same as here in California and in California at least we don’t have so far any devastating hurricanes plus I could not live where sharks and alligators are so prevalent since I love the oceanwith all the flooding off Fort Myers I can imagine what people pay for flood insurance if they can get it because here in California with earthquakes that are prevalent nobody can get earthquake insurance. Tour you gave her was really nice.
TRUMP WAS N IS THE BEST EVER!
Thank you so much for the updated tour! I have been coming to Sanibel for 40 years, and was there and evacuated a few days before Ian. It's nice to see things coming back. One note about the Sanibel Siesta where I have always stayed. I was going to go for a week in June 2024, but found out elevators are not yet working. If you plan to stay there, please be sure to ask about the elevators. Otherwise, looking good!
I am looking to go next year, May of 2025. I am a 55 yo male going on a solo vacation. Where would you recommend? Looking to relax and do a little fishing and snorkeling from the beach. Thanks
Tween Waters Inn would be a good bet. Good fishing both back bay and Gulf. It has some great fishing guides there. Also check out Rob at Captiva Water Sports he has boats to rent and is very knowledgeable. He is based at the resort. You could stop in at Whitney’s or the Bait box they have great local fishing knowledge and a good selection of tackle. Whitneys also does salt water fly fishing. Snorkeling is not great as the visibility is pretty bad. Although there are occasional days where the water is clearer. Hope this helps
Support your local legion, vfw hall, etc. pay respect to our veterans that fought for our freedoms. Enjoyed seeing how far the recovery has come. Ty
Can't wait to go back.

Glad I could help!

Great video. We're on the east coast of SFL and were at South Seas Resort the weekend before the storm. Our anniversary tradition was dinner at Mad Hatter. So sad to see it all devastated but love to see the islands bounce back.
Great video - thank you!! We'd stayed at the Island Inn years ago, then the spring before Ian we stayed at Beacview Cottages - we loved both, but Beachview was our favorite. I just booked a condo at Sanibel Siesta on the Beach for next spring and can't wait to return!!
Captiva I better😊😊😊😊😊😊
Is ding darling open?
Yes it is!
i miss bellini's restaurant on captiva. now they put some stupid modern residentials in the midde of what was supposed to be a recreational shopping and dining area. damn investors. what the hurrican leaves, speculants kill the rest of the beauty. there should be an island committee preventing specualant activities of this kind.
Yes we agree. The original owners of Bellini’s are opening a place in Fort Myers soon
ah, won't be the same. that place was so romantic at night, imagine the guy even played his piano while i inhaled my lobster after a 10 hour transatlantic flight. old fashion american style songs by the sea, nice crowd. my heart's bleeding after all this. @@TheSanibelCaptivaGuide
My sister and I went back shortly after you shot this video. Our family owned Twin Palm Cottages for a few years when we were kids.
Oh wow how cool! What years? Do you have fond memories?
@@TheSanibelCaptivaGuide It was in the early 70s. We both were going to school at Sanibel Elementary. Very fond memories. back then hardly anyone lived on the island and the place was mostly a jungle.
@themaverickproject4577 did your family own it right before the Jensen’s took over? Would love to see pics of old Captiva.
@@TheSanibelCaptivaGuide I believe my family sold it to someone who then sold it to Jensen. We were friends with Jensons and visited them, renting a cottage, ever so often. We were heartbroken when Dave Jensen died.
@@TheSanibelCaptivaGuide My parents were Lee and Rosalee Woods. My name is Glenn. My sister is Lorelei (Woods) Hagen
Great video. Thanks for the update. One suggestion for your consideration. The music loop played over and over and over again. Bstarted to annoy me after the first two minutes. Maybe that’s just me. And I consider to be a minor point. Thanks again.
Nice video and well put together!.. Thanks for sharing!
Thanks for watching!
Ty for sharing! I’ve lived in Naples fl for 7 years and have never been to Sanibel and once I thought I should check it out we got the hurricane.
Oh my gosh Sanibel looks so so much better !!! It was so heartbreaking right after the storm to see what was left or what wasn’t left BUT this beautiful island is on its way back !! Thanks for showing us the progress!!! Sanibel is still on my bucket list !!!!
We totally agree!
👏
We went to Sanibel Island. Why won't they tell you about how people are getting eaten alive by the Sand Fleas on the beach,in the seaweed floating in the surf,etc??!!! It was a great visit...but we paid for it for 3weeks after it!!!!!
