So what is it about Golf Carts on North Captiva Anyway?

The main means of transportation on North Captiva Island are battery powered golf carts. This makes for a totally unique experience.

North Captiva is approximately 4 miles long. At the Northern end are 200 homes scattered in 550 acres of tropical vegitation. Travelling amongst the palms are 8 miles of sandy pathways. - These are our roads.

The result is an unbelievably quiet and safe environment no cars roaring about, not one inch of pavement, no gas and no cash.

Its hard to convey how these carts change your attitude on this island, how going to the store or beach becomes an adventure. How spending time just driving around is a favorite pastime. And how waving to any passing cart seems to be the most natural thing to do, possibly because you are both sharing some special feeling.
