Charlotte Harbor is positively packed with possibilities. Though this five-square-mile area of southwest Florida only has a population of about 4,000 people, it's situated in the middle of a bevy of bigger metropolitan areas. Posh Naples and bustling Fort Myers are south, while culturally engaged Sarasota and frenetic Tampa lie north. You're close to the action, yet able to escape from it all. Charlotte Harbor vacations deliver the best of both worlds.
Nature lovers who've booked Charlotte Harbor vacation packages will find tons of enjoyable diversions. Families with adventurous little ones should visit Stump Pass Beach State Park, where you can dig shark teeth out of the beach and take ranger-led tours during the winter. Accessible only by ferry, Don Pedro Island State Park offers great hiking and shelling opportunities. You can also rent a boat for a sightseeing tour, or do some deep-water fishing. There are plenty of attractions that don't involve sand and surf, though. Packages to Charlotte Harbor wouldn't be complete without browsing the antiques at the Punta Gorda Train Depot or hitting the links at any of the two-dozen nearby golf courses.
It's not hard to find a public event in Charlotte Harbor or the surrounding areas, not too far from your hotel in Charlotte Harbor. The Peace River National Art Festival takes place every March, and June sees the annual Punta Gorda Blues, Brew and BBQ festival pull into town. The arrival of the Festival of Lights (a shining array of Christmas-themed decorations) and the King Fisher Fleet Lighted Canal Cruise (an annual waterway processional of decorated boats) arrive during December. And every Thursday night, the Punta Gorda Guitar Army performs at Gilchrist Park. There are also many regattas that take place in the harbor itself throughout the year.
