Get in touch with nature however you chose- spotting wildlife, interacting with history, or basking in the sunshine for sheer relaxation in the most natural parts of Southwest Florida. That’s what you’ll experience the moment you arrive to experience the islands, beaches, and neighborhoods of Fort Myers.
Find Your Beaches
Find your island a few hours from Miami, Orlando, or Key West. Discover the endless stretches of white-sand beaches, each with a one-of-a-kind personality. No high rises. No crowds. Enjoy the world’s best shelling on Captiva and Sanibel Islands. Take in the music and nightlife of Fort Myers Beach. Hundreds of secluded islands dot the sun-splashed coastline. Most of them are only accessible by boat or seaplane. Island hop to Cabbage Key for the “real cheeseburger in paradise.” Find room to breathe in the refreshing and peaceful Cayo Costa State Park. Sink into the sunset at Lover’s Key State Park. The beach of your dreams is here.
Find Your Piece of Nature
Many of the islands provide sanctuary to wildlife. Take advantage and get close to the natural side of Florida. Watch dolphins play in the wake of your boat. Glide beneath the shade of mangroves while on a guided kayak tour of the Great Calusa Blueway. Paddle inches from manatees bobbing near the water’s surface, or spy on them at Manatee Park. Spot pink Roseate Spoonbill and more than 300 kinds of birds in the J.N. “Ding” Darling National Wildlife Refuge, the largest undeveloped mangrove ecosystem in the U.S. Find your island, naturally, on the beaches of Fort Myers.
Experience the islands, beaches, and neighborhoods of Fort Myers and experience Florida like never before.
