Blind Pass Beach - Beach in Sanibel - 6491-6499 Sanibel Captiva Rd, USA

Best place to find large whole shells 🐚! The parking lot was closed so park at Turner beach and walk over the bridge. It’s worth it! Also, if you like to fish, this bridge is the place to catch bull sharks! My son and husband caught one was 7ft and the other 6ft. Best time ever.

"Hell of a day at sea, sir!" Great shelling. Saw beautiful birds. We were graced with a dolphin show too. #blessed

Great for fishing and a more intimate/less crowded beach experience. Don’t forget bug spray, they can get bad! If you are there to fish, I’d recommend wearing long sleeves and pants to avoid the bugs.

We've gone shelling at Blind Pass Beach and Turner Beach pre-Ian. This was our first time back. We tried to time our visit with low tide, so my son was able to get pretty far out. However, we had our best luck digging in the sand closer to the bridge. And guess what we found! Two Junonia shell fragments - probably the closest we'll ever get to finding one of these shells, so we were geeked up for a bit. We had no issues parking when we went on a Monday afternoon. We did park at Blind Pass and then drove back over to Turner to use the showers before heading to Doc Ford's for some dinner. As others have said, watch out for the current in Blind Pass.

Trust me when I say go EARLY! Parking is very hard to find, and traffic is ridiculous, but so worth it. Blind pass beach is beautiful and if you swim out to the sandbar, you will find shells galore! Found sand dollars, nautilus shells and so much more! Not crowded at all! Spent an entire day here.

Very nice wide clean beach. But there's signs for no swimming because of strong currents. Looks like a good place for fishing, sun bathing, or beach volleyball.

Absolutely a must see in Captiva! The beach is full of shells just waiting for their new home! Beautiful clear waters! Parking is super difficult as there is only a small parking area so get there super early to secure a spot. Spend hours searching for the perfect shell to take home. Super relaxed beach area that will make hours feel like minutes!

Blind Pass is always in a state of constant change. Strong rip currents are the norm. Great place to fish and shell. Convenient parking on both the North and South sides of the beach. Don’t forget to pay to park. A great place to catch the full sunset
