Endless stretches of white-sand beaches, the crystal-clear blue waters of the Gulf, palm trees, and ocean breezes welcome you to Fort Myers Beach. And while this is one of Florida's most-loved vacation destinations, for a lucky few, it's home. If island life is calling you, an apartment in Fort Myers Beach provides more than a resort-like paradise; nearby Fort Myers and Cape Coral have a robust business environment, and nearby Florida Gulf Coast University attracts students to the area. Events like the Annual American Sandsculpting Festival, Paint the Beach, and the Tarpon Tournament create a sense of community.
In addition to being home to some amazing beaches, Fort Myers Beach is near other great destinations -- Sanibel Island, Captiva Island, and Lovers Key State Park are all minutes from Fort Myers Beach. Activities include wildlife viewing, canoeing, kayaking, swimming, paddle-boarding, hiking, shelling, fishing, and boating.
