Our local white-sandy beaches are world-famous on lists of places to go and things to do. You will find award-winning Fort Myers Beach, Sanibel, and Captiva Islands’ beaches provide an excellent opportunity to lie around and soak up the Florida sun! Our beaches are known for their abundance of shells and the family-friendly waters of the sparkling Gulf of Mexico and bays. One thing visitors to Southwest Florida can agree on is that time spent relaxing on the beach is one of the best things to do!
