Outdoor furnitureFort Myers Beach occupies all of what is known as  
Estero Island, just 10 miles from both downtown Fort Myers and the  
Southwest Florida International Airport. The island’s south side  
faces the Gulf of Mexico and has miles of beaches. However, the best  
beach in the area is on Lover’s Key in the state park on the island.  
This is an excellent place if you are at all interested in nature as  
there are many birds living in the mangrove forests here. This also  
happens to be a great spot for shelling. The Estero Bay side of the  
island is best viewed by boat or kayak, either of which may be  
rented  
in the area. There are many uninhabited keys within the bay that  
play  
host to hundreds of different species of birds, plants and mammals.  
If you are interested in fishing you can simply cast a line from the  
piers and docks here in Fort Myers Beach or you can arrange a  
charter  
fishing guide to help you land the big one. If you are interested in  
seeing the coastline a bit more some popular day trips include  
Sanibel and Captiva Islands to the north or Naples to the south. The  
shopping and dining scene on Fort Myers Beach is excellent. There  
are  
many shopping plazas along the island from Times Square in the north  
to Lover’s Key in the south. And after a busy day enjoying Estero  
Island you can watch the sunset in the western sky from your own  
vacation home in Fort Myers Beach.
