Southwest Florida is home to some of the country's most pristine beaches.
Visitors of Cape Coral primarily visit one of the four local islands.
Each island offers a unique experience.
Estero Island sits between Naples and Fort Myers. Once a citrus community, the island now welcomes visitors to escape to a beach-lover’s destination.
If you're looking for the "beach scene" with bars, tourist shops & larger crowds, the beaches of Estero Island are where you'll likely want to visit.
Sanibel and Captiva Islands are two small islands that are popular because of their low-key, quiet beach settings. With beautiful white sand beaches & world-renowned shelling, Sanibel & Captiva Islands are your go-to destinations if you're looking to get away from the crowds.
Pine Island offers a quiet, laid-back atmosphere, plenty of great fishing, and a lush natural environment. If you're looking to go fishing, enjoy wildlife & nature, Pine Island may be the island for you.
Before heading out to the beach, we HIGHLY ENCOURAGE you to read through the following two articles.
