A significant figure in Florida folklore is Jose Gaspar, an alleged Spanish pirate who is said to have raided the west coast of the state in the early 19th century. Legend states that Captiva Island off the Gulf Coast of Florida played a significant part in Gaspar's plundering – those who threatened to stop the pirate from obtaining underwater treasures were held 'captive' on the island. While the tale of Jose Gaspar is debatable, what cannot be disputed is the natural and man-made beauty that exists today on beautiful Captiva Island. Quite contrary to being held against their will, Captiva residents and tourists delight in the laid back lifestyle and luxury amenities on the island. A Captiva luxury home is an ideal choice for searchers of beachfront bungalows or elegant cottages in a tropical paradise devoid of raiding Buccaneers.
