Fort Myers Beach Attractions

Fort Myers Beach is a hot spot with retirees, snow birds from the northern states who come here to escape winter, and young people who flock to the beautiful and happening beach and town. This beach resort has a very small but fun town center with beach shops, restaurants, and entertainment hot spots, all within a block of the beach. This is a great swimming beach with a wide stretch of sand that very gradually sinks out into the ocean.

The history of Fort Myers Beach can be traced back to 1513 when Ponce de Leòn passed through the area. It is comprised of the mainland and two islands, Estero and San Carlos. Recreational activities include fishing, golf, tennis and scuba diving.
