Spring break just got a whole lot more fun.
Tucked away on Florida’s tranquil Captiva Island – just a few hours south of Tampa -- South Seas is a retreat where the entire family can recharge. Now with the new Captiva Landing, it takes things to the next level.
With twisting slides, erupting splash pads, and a lazy river for sun-drenched drifting, splashing around isn’t only OK—it’s encouraged. But there’s plenty of play on land, too, including a classic arcade, casual dining with family favorites, and even a special Camp-tiva program for youngsters.
