There are more than enough reasons to love Fort Myers and Sanibel Island: great weather (the Gulf water averages 76 degrees, almost never dipping below 60 even in the wintertime), delicious food (it’s rumored that Jimmy Buffett wrote “Cheeseburger in Paradise” after dining at an area restaurant), fantastic outdoor sports.

Sanibel Island provides wonderful sandy beaches and a profusion of shells because of it's unique east-west orientation. These beaches yield the perfect setting for making beautiful memories. Spend the day swimming, fishing, windsurfing or just enjoy a picnic on the gorgeous beach.
The immaculate waters surrounding the Islands and Fort Myers beach provide outstanding opportunities for fishermen of all skill levels. Whether offshore, inshore, back bay, pier, beach or wade sea fishing, fish can be found here year ‘round.
