While “near beach” is a relative term, generally speaking anything within a half mile or so of the shore is considered “near beach”. As Sanibel is only two and a half miles at its widest point there are quite a few near beach options on both the east and west side of the Island.
There is more of a distinction mid Island beginning as Sanibel Captiva Road goes west from Tarpon Bay towards Captiva. Bayshore Village, Bayside Village, Beachview Country Club Estates, Brightwater, Butterknife, Buttonwood, Seagrape, Eastwood Landing, Ferry Landing, Kinzie Island, Las Conchas del Mar, Las Tiendas, Sanibel Shores, South Capers, Southwinds are east of Tarpon Bay Road. Cardinal Ridge, Chateaux Sur Mer, Del Sega, Gopher Walk, Gulf Pines, Gulf Ridge, Gulf Shores, Heron’s Landing, Huschka, Kearns Lake Murex, Lane-Cochran, Leisure Acres, Little Lake Murex, Long Acre Lake, Palm Lake, Rocks East, Rocks West, Sanibel Bayous, Sanibel Hamlet, Sanibel River Estates, Sanibel Woodlands, Seagate, Sea Oats, Seaspray, Terrell Ridge and Tradewinds are west of Tarpon Bay Road.
All are considered near beach subdivisions when searching under prime location. Click on the Map tab on each listing page to see the property location.
