Barrier Island Beach is an expansive sandy beach in Barrier Island Geopark. The South Banks Trail in the North Captiva Nature Preserve dead ends at the open beach, which usually offers a lot of solitude. You'll likely have to hop off and push your bike once you get closer to the water and the trail disappears.
