Fort Myers : South West Florida

Filed under:

Fort Myers

Fort Myers is a gateway to a number of white sand beach islands and a thriving city with historical and natural attractions. The city is located directly on the wide Caloosahatchee River and offers numerous parks that preserve the fragile habitat while providing access to river boating and trails for biking and hiking. Fort Myers is the seat of Lee County and home of much of the area’s history. It’s apparent in the architecture downtown and in nearby neighborhoods-most notably just south of the downtown area, where Fort Myers most celebrated residents lived. Southwest Florida’s natural places make the region different from any other on earth, and visitors can explore mangrove forest, swamps, and other unique habitats in several areas. Calusa Nature Center and Planetarium provides an informative look and special programs about the region’s natural systems and animals. Special presentations also are staged periodically in the planetarium. Manatee Park allows winter visitors to get a close-up look at these gentle water giants in their natural habitat, and Six Mile Cypress Slough gives visitors a feeling for the region’s wetlands and the creatures that inhabit them. Lakes Park is a good spot for those who prefer to walk or bicycle along nature trails-simply to relax after a busy day sightseeing around Fort Myers.
