The purpose of the surveys was to measure the economic impact of the beaches on the island, the county, and the state. Additionally, the survey represents an updating of previous surveys of Captiva's beaches that were taken prior to the beach restoration project that was commenced in 1988 and was completed in April 1989. As a result, the surveys can be used to measure the effect of the beach restoration on beach use and its economic impact.en-USlocal economyCaptiva Island, FloridatourismFloridaWorking Paper
