Figure Eight Island is the picture of private oceanfront living, with only 441 homes and no commercial developments of any kind. The community is only accessible to homeowners and their guests, via a guarded drawbridge accessible only by a bridge across the Intracoastal Waterway. Homes on the ocean side of Figure Eight Island carry a pricetag of $1.9 to $6 million. Homes facing the inlet go for between $2 million and $4 million. Figure Eight Island features over five miles of beaches and abundant natural beauty providing a rare combination of a peaceful retreat and secure sanctuary. The HOA takes pride in their conservation efforts, aiming to protect native sea turtles, plants and marine mammals.
