Kayaking the Great Calusa Blueway is Heaven.
The 190 mile trail meanders three rivers through Estero Bay, Pine Island Sound and around coastal islands. Routes suit novice to expert paddlers.
Beautiful Beaches. Blueway Trail. Bounty of the Sea.
Nearby is Fort Meyers, and landed right between fresh and saltwater. Beaches, natural surroundings, and history lures everyone in. Collect seashells from the white sand beaches, kayak the Calusa Blueway Trail, take a stroll through the brick-paved streets of the downtown River District, visit the Edison and Ford winter estates, pick through the many boutiques and when hunger strikes, sit down for a bite at one of the many restaurants and bars.
If it's the bounty from the sea that tickles your fancy, Southwest Florida's coastline has hundreds of islands and thousands of miles of shoreline providing rich seagrass beds that attract all types of saltwater fish. Options abound around Fort Myers: Captiva and Sanibel Islands for all types of fishing. Tarpon, grouper and other game fish love the sheltered temperate waters and catches of snapper and redfish are common.
