The town in southwest Florida is known as the City of Palms. The white-sand beaches aren't the only reason to take cheap flights to Fort Myers, there are more than 130 public and private golf courses. Other activities on tap include skating (skateboarding, ice-skating and roller-skating), nature walks, water park and planetarium.
The beaches of Fort Myers are a gateway to several islands including the northern barrier islands of North Captiva, Cayo Costa and Gasparilla. Only accessible by boat, they make for a great day trip.
Linked to the mainland by a short toll road, Sanibel boasts soft sandy beaches on its Gulf side and bays, creeks, and the J. N. “Ding” Darling National Wildlife Refuge on the east.
The Captiva Island beaches have been described as America's most romantic. The sandy beaches, rare sea shells, gentle, lapping waves and warm breezes are a recipe for a do-nothing vacation.
Fort Myers Beach is considered one of the best family-friendly beaches in the southeastern United States. Most of the action is at “Times Square,” but the rest of the island is more relaxed.
