Captiva at a glance
Captiva is a narrow barrier island north of Sanibel, connected across Blind Pass, with resort property and seasonal homes. The U.S. Census Bureau's 2018–2022 American Community Survey estimates about 151 residents in Captiva. The median year of construction is about 1985, so many homes were built before Florida's post-2002 hurricane building-code updates. Captiva is on a barrier island exposed to Gulf storm surge and wind-driven rain. Recent hurricanes have pushed water into ground floors and low streets. Many Captiva homes are used seasonally, so a leak can run for days before anyone notices.

In Captiva, water from one condo or apartment often reaches the unit below before anyone notices. Hurricane wind and summer thunderstorms reach every street in Captiva.
A Captiva roof that lost shingles, tile, or a section of decking lets every afternoon storm into the attic.
Know your Captiva property
Median year built: 1985. That matters because homes built before 2002 predate the statewide Florida Building Code and its stronger wind provisions. Population: about 151 (the Census Bureau's 2018–2022 American Community Survey estimate). Roughly 76% of housing units are held for seasonal or recreational use; storm damage is often found days later by a neighbor or manager. Captiva is about 24 miles west of Fort Myers. About 45% of units are in buildings with 10 or more units, so wind-driven rain gets in around sliders and windows on upper floors.
