WATER & COAST
Turner Beach
Lee County · Gulf Coast
At 17200 Captiva Drive, just past the bridge onto Captiva, on the Captiva side of Blind Pass. Soft sand and wide water views, and it is known for the sunset. The fishing is good off the beach and off the rock jetty. DO NOT SWIM NEAR THE BRIDGE: the water deepens fast there and strong undertows can run. Safer swimming is farther down the beach. ADA restrooms and a paddlecraft launch. Dawn to dusk. Parking is $5 an hour, limited, mobile payment only, and the Lee County annual pass is accepted. No dogs, because this counts as Captiva.
Not identified in this guide as an officially clothing-optional beach. This is a visit category, not a safety rating—check surf, lifeguards, water quality and posted rules.
