Fort Myers Beach
Florida · United States
We start our tour at the north end of Fort Myers Beach and start our trip down the intracoastal where you will see the more populated areas of the island passing other boaters and waterfront restaurants. The further south we go the more nature we will see as we cruise down along the mangroves to the southern end of the island. We will turn around at Big Carlos Pass which is a popular spot for dolphins to hunt for fish coming through before we head back. We will end the trip by cruising out into San Carlos Bay at the north end of the island and watching a beautiful sunset.
