| Southwest Florida is known for its “fun in the sun” atmosphere, and Fort Myers Beach is right in the middle of it all. This family-friendly beach town has a funky little vibe all of its own. Fun shops and restaurants line Times Square, and the town’s fishing pier is a popular draw. Most opt to find a spot somewhere on the pristine seven-mile beach nestling the Gulf of Mexico, named “Best Family-Friendly Beach in the Southeast U.S.” by Family Fun Magazine. On the southern end of the island lies Lover’s Key State Park, offering beautiful unspoiled nature preserves and opportunities to view remarkable wildlife. Golf, fishing, boating, shopping and dining hold huge appeal, as well, as do day trips to other nearby attractions, such as Sanibel and Captiva islands, the Everglades and the Florida Keys. ... more | | |
