Fort Myers and County Government
Fort Myers is the county seat and contains the courthouse, principal county offices, hospitals, educational institutions, the historic River District, and regional businesses.
The city developed on the south bank of the Caloosahatchee River and includes attractions such as the Edison and Ford Winter Estates.
Cape Coral and the Canal Network
Cape Coral is a large planned city north and west of the Caloosahatchee River. Extensive canals, waterfront neighborhoods, marinas, and Gulf access define much of the urban landscape.
Canal depth, bridge clearance, and boating access differ by location, so current local navigation information is required.
Sanibel, Captiva, and the Barrier Islands
Sanibel and Captiva are barrier islands known for shell beaches, wildlife refuges, and low-rise coastal scenery. J.N. “Ding” Darling National Wildlife Refuge protects migratory birds and mangrove habitat.
Road, beach, and facility conditions can change during storm recovery, so current official information should be checked before travel.
Estero, Bonita Springs, and the Southern County
Estero and Bonita Springs are fast-growing southern municipalities with residential communities, shopping, education, Estero Bay, and beach access.
Fort Myers Beach occupies Estero Island and is associated with beaches, fishing, boating, and visitor services. Coastal access and rebuilding conditions should be verified.
Caloosahatchee River and Coastal Ecology
The Caloosahatchee River links inland waterways with the Gulf and supports boating, fishing, water management, and urban waterfronts. Pine Island Sound and Estero Bay contain mangroves, seagrass, islands, and wildlife habitat.
Tides, water levels, water quality, and wildlife rules can change. Current charts and agency guidance are required for water activities.
