Welcome to the Series
Captiva's musical
heartbeat — on the dock, on the water, every weekend.
Sit on the dock of the bay. Watch the day slip past the palms. From intimate acoustic sets to full-band Friday blowouts, our water’s-edge stage hosts the finest singer-songwriters in Southwest Florida.
“More than live music — Rock the Dock brings together sunset views, local artists, and the laid-back island charm & energy of Captiva’s waterfront.” T. Jackson
