Seven cruise boats have expressed interest\, and I am allowing for n ine. These are the first available dates for a group of our size.\n\n‘Tw een Waters Island Resort &\; Marina is nestled between their private Gu lf of Mexico beaches and the natural beauty of Pine Island Sound\, and com bines historic charm\, luxury amenities\, and pure relaxation at their bea utiful Captiva Island location.\n\nMany properties on Captiva are still cl osed due to damage from Hurricane Ian. Services at ‘Tween Waters are sub stantially intact\, though internet is sporadic at times. See info about r estaurants below. The property is very quiet because of limited onshore pa tronage. The marina is getting busier given the lack of alternative destin ations in the area. Options off-property are few and not viable presently. ‘Tween Waters is an oasis and am pleased with the opportunity to cruise there.\n\nTween Waters Status:\n\n The hurricane surge reached the floor baseboards of the Ship’s Store. Most of the property’s building are h igher and were not flooded.\n The cruising approach from the ICW is uncha nged from pre-Hurricane.  That is\, 6’ depth at high tide and 4’ at l ow tide.  Exercise caution as before.
