There's lots to see and do in Fort Myers, much of it within walking distance of the main beach area. You probably won't need to rent a car unless you're planning day trips to the Everglades or other nearby attractions. Additionally, you can rent a bike or hitch a ride with local public transportation. LeeTran offers buses and a trolley throughout the city.
You'll rarely feel cold in Fort Myers, where high temperatures are more or less guaranteed all through the year. Summertime average highs soar in the scorching mid 90s°F, with regular rains at this time of year helping to cool things down. Spring and fall offer slightly cooler, but still warm, weather without the downpours. In spring, be prepared to compete with partying spring breakers for accommodations.
You're sure to spend at least some of your time in Fort Myers hanging out on the beach, so one of the most important things on your packing list has to be your swimsuit. Other essentials include:
Beaches, warm trade winds, and umbrella-clad beverages converge where the mouth of the Caloosahatchee River opens into the Gulf of Mexico.
