Top Best Seafood Restaurants in North Captiva Island

"Plates full of oysters, shrimp baskets, bbq-soaked ribs, thick-cut French fries, and so much more line up the tables at this bar and restaurant. Order a drink in a very Florida mason jar. Mojitos and daiquiris are the two most popular, but there’s a full rum bar for you to let loose."

"The Island Cow has perhaps one of the most extensive menu on Sanibel Island. You can enjoy a Loaded Seafood Omelet or Pigs In a Blanket Pancakes for breakfast while you lounge in the comfortable outdoor seating and sip fresh mimosas. You can try the Tuna Oh Luna or the Blackened Mahi Tacos for lunch as you listen to the live entertainment."

"When you drive up to "The Cow" as locals call it, it feels and looks like you're arriving at a friend's house for coffee, Starbucks; that's the brand they brew. The Cow is light and airy inside with lots of casual, outdoor seating as well. The menu looks like the morning paper and it reads delicious."

"Bringing New England coastal cooking to the Florida gulf shores, Izzy’s Fish and Oyster will have you happy as a clam. Dine like you’re on the Cape with a bowl of Izzy’s famous New England chowder, oysters Rockefeller (on the half-shell with a green sauce), and fried scallops. Wash it all down with the Catamaran’s balanced blend of gin, club soda, and mint."

"Our first, and possibly favorite meal of the trip, was at Izzy’s Fish and Oyster. This spot had me at the nautical atmosphere and the multitudes of seafood options. The food lived up to the expectation too as we loved the succulent oysters, a savory lobster roll and a zesty ceviche."

"From Sanibel, it’s about a half hour to Fort Myers, where you can spend a leisurely few hours exploring the Edison & Ford Winter Estates. Then hit the road again for the 90-minute drive to Sarasota, where you can catch an opera performance, stroll the downtown art galleries, or gawk at the gaudy architecture of circus magnate John Ringling’s mansion. For fans of serious American architecture, a trip to Sarasota would be incomplete without exploring the scores of gorgeous and innovative buildings in the area, many of which were designed by a confederacy of architects known as the Sarasota School."
