Places To Go In Fort Myers
There is a world of beasts and scales, of low branches and murky swamps, and a hierarchy of jaws and fins. It’s an adventure and a thrill, and a place where your heart will pump with that murky blend of terror and exhilaration. We’re talking about the Everglades, just a boat ride outside of Fort Myers. Of course, if you do want to be at the top of the food chain during your trip to Florida, that’s available, too. Especially when you’re served decadent shrimp cocktails and succulent and Cuban pork sandwiches as you lounge on the pier. Fort Myers attractions range from the spine-tingling to the relaxing, and with our Fort Myers hotels, you’re close everything that makes your heart pump and skip a beat. It is a place you’ll want to roam into, eyes wide open.
