Investment Insights
Based on property information with market context.
Little Shell Island is a 0.74-acre island parcel located in the Caloosahatchee River in Southwest Florida, within the “Miserable Mile” near Marker 93, just south of Tarpon Point Marina. The property features navigable water and river frontage, with access limited to boats.
The island is currently zoned AG-2. City and County staff have previously recognized island development challenges and granted a variance waiving standard setback conditions typically required along similar waterbodies in Southwest Florida. A previous dock serviced the island, and there may be an opportunity to rebuild subject to permitting.
Historically, the island served as a popular restaurant destination for locals and passing boaters in the 1970s and 1980s. The owner previously applied for a variance to build a solar-powered lighthouse-style structure featuring a one-bedroom residence.
