Fort Myers & Naples
Free Travel Deals Newsletter
Two very different cities, Fort Myers and Naples, do have in common accessibility to wildlife refuges and other protected wilderness habitat, as well as gorgeous beaches along the Gulf of Mexico. This makes both popular destinations for birders and outdoor enthusiasts. At Naples' southeastern doorstep stretches Everglades National Park and Big Cypress National Preserve. Yet its metropolitan area is known for its perfectly civilized countenance of arts, golf, shopping, and fine dining. Fort Myers, to the north, touts its historic attractions and barrier islands, most famously Sanibel Island, famous for its shelling and wildlife refuge. Facing the Caloosahatchee River and bounded on the west by the Intracoastal Waterway and the Gulf of Mexico, this area is a sportsman's paradise. With climates that allow visitors to play year-round, the Fort Myers-Naples area attracts families, couples, fishermen, boaters, kayakers, and nature-lovers alike.
