5706 Sanibel Captiva Road, CASTAWAY ESTATESSanibel, FL 33957Price: $899,000

Welcome to 5706 Sanibel Captiva Road-arguably one of the biggest and best boating properties to hit the 2026 market on Sanibel Island's coveted West End. Set on a commanding 1.39 acres with 300+ feet of direct deep-water frontage, this is not just waterfront-it's front-row access to the intracoastal playground of Pine Island Sound and the wide open turquoise waters of the Gulf. No bridges, no compromises. Just throttle down and go. The water here isn't just decorative, it's alive. Manatee cruise past like they own the place. Dolphin put on a show. Snook, Redfish, Snapper, and Sheepshead make this a year-round fishery. Overhead, Osprey and Bald Eagles patrol the sky. It's nature's highway, and you've got the best seat on it. The West end location is prime; It's quiet, yet just minutes by bike to the island's best beaches, Blind Pass, and the historic Santiva enclave. A quick hop brings you to Captiva Island for waterfront dining, boutique shopping, and legendary stops like The Mucky Duck, Green flash, or iconic Captiva Island Store. Build here and you're positioned for sweeping Gulf views over Silver Key and sunsets that don't need a filter. Mangrove-lined canal. Bayou waters. Shell-strewn shoreline. This is the kind of setting people write songs about-and boaters wait years to find. A property survey, marine survey, engineering study, and architectural plans for a custom 3,000 sq. ft. elevated coastal home + boat dock and lift are complete and transferable. That's months (if not years!) of time and a significant chunk of money saved-so you can move straight to building your dream instead of waiting on paperwork. This isn't just another lot. It's a launch point for a lifetime of early-morning runs, sunset cruises, tarpon seasons, and long weekends on the water. If boating isn't just a hobby but a way of life, this is your home port. Opportunities like this don't wait, and neither should you.
