Estero

Located just off of the beaches of Fort Myers & Sanibel, an area featuring more than 100 barrier islands along South Florida’s Gulf Coast, Estero offers easy access to all that the area has to offer. The remote island beaches are considered to be some of the most beautiful in the nation. The white sands and blue waters of Bonita Beach and, to the north, unspoiled Lover's Key State Park, offer a chance to escape and relax to the sound of the surf gently rolling in from the gulf.

Nearby, Estero Island and Fort Myers Beach have long been recognized as one of the "world's safest family beaches" because of its shoreline that gently slopes into the gulf. The island is home to a fascinating variety of landscapes and an abundance of wildlife. There are miles of beaches to enjoy, and many back bays, estuaries and lush mangrove forests for great kayaking and spectacular views of dolphins and birds.

Golfers love the lush, green courses carved from nature, including some of the best public courses in the country. There's plenty of fishing available with many marinas offering boat rentals and fishing charters. Guided walks and campfire programs are offered seasonally. With some of the area's trendiest new shops and bistros located in this charming small-town setting, there's a bit of old and new Florida awaiting those who hear the call.

There are parks and wildlife areas where you can walk through the remnants of history or along elevated boardwalks through wet prairies and Cypress grounds. Exploration of this area is an exploration into Florida’s vast history. While Estero offers its residents small-town charm, all of the amenities of larger cities such as Naples and Fort Myers Beach are just a short drive away.

Also located in Estero are the 19th-century remains of the utopian Koreshan community, a state historical site. The Koreshan Park was a utopian community settled in the late 1800s.
