Golf with a View
Designed to engage players of all ages and skill levels, The Clutch is as enjoyable for advanced golfers as it is for beginners. This short course, designed by the renowned experts at Beau Welling, is named after a turtle’s nest, with each hole representing part of the history, landscape, or wildlife of the Captiva Island area. Join us for an unparalleled blend of natural Gulf beauty, strategic challenges, and a family-friendly atmosphere. The Clutch is exclusively available to South Seas guests and owners with Club Captiva access and a confirmed course reservation during their stay.

Players may rent a pushcart for their clubs, and players with mobility limitations may use a riding cart. Pushcarts and riding carts are subject to availability.
