Fort Myers is within easy reach of great golf, fishing, boating, swimming, water sports, shelling, wildlife watching, eating and shopping etc. Naples is thirty minutes away, Tampa & Busch Gardens are an hour & a half north, and Orlando is just over 2 hours. But it’s the beaches and the ocean that bring most people here. It's an easy 15 minutes by car onto Sanibel and Fort Myers Beach.
The wildlife is stunning. Corkscrew Swamp, the Ding Darling wildlife preserve on Sanibel, the manatees in the Caloosahatchee in the cooler months, the pelicans and osprey, the shore birds scuttling up and down the seashore, alligators in the Everglades and swamps, dolphins swimming in the surf at the edge of Sanibel's Lighthouse Beach ... it's all here and it's fantastic.
Shops: Sweet Bay, Publix, Blockbuster, Walgreens & a 24-hour 7-Eleven are just round the corner. Wal-Mart, Tanger Outlet Mall, Bell Tower and Miromar Outlet Mall are all within 20 mins.
