South Bay sits at the southern reach of Gasparilla Island, the barrier-island community that makes up Boca Grande homes for sale. This is old-Florida island life — a low-key, high-value pocket where a handful of gated addresses trade among people who already know the island, close to established neighborhoods like Beach View At Boca Bay and Harbor Drive Waterways.
The market here is thin and priced accordingly: right now there's a single active listing at $5,600,000, and over the past year just two homes sold at a median of $4,662,500. Inventory this scarce means when something comes up it moves — you can watch it in real time on the live map. Buyers should come ready to act and to underwrite carrying costs that reflect true island real estate.
South Bay is a community in Boca Grande, Florida.

Straight answers
South Bay FAQs
Is South Bay a good place to live?+
It suits buyers who want quiet, private island life at the southern end of Gasparilla Island rather than a busy in-town scene. You're close to established communities such as North Village and East Shore Acres, all within the walkable, low-density feel Boca Grande is known for. It's best for someone who values seclusion and long-term ownership over turnover and nightlife.
Is South Bay expensive?+
Yes — this is one of the higher-priced pockets on the island, with the current active listing at $5,600,000 and last year's two sales landing at a median of $4,662,500. The average price is about $2,063 per square foot. Expect true island pricing and plan financing accordingly.
What do homes cost in South Bay?+
The single home on the market is listed at $5,600,000, and recent sales set a median around $4,662,500 for homes near 2,714 square feet. At roughly $2,063 per square foot, values here reflect the scarcity of East Shore Acres and neighboring south-island real estate. Comparable properties are few, so each listing tends to set its own benchmark.
How is the market in South Bay?+
It's extremely low-volume: one active listing today and just two sales over the last 12 months. Sellers averaged about 97% of asking, and the current listing shows a median of 0 days on market, so serious buyers should be prepared to move quickly. Watching the live map is the best way to catch new inventory.
What about HOA fees and property taxes?+
Expect a median HOA of about $809 per month for the gated setting here. Property taxes run high in line with values — the median is roughly $47,065 per year. Budget both into your carrying costs before you make an offer.
