Whether you are traveling to Florida for business or pleasure there are certain activities that cannot be missed. This state is located in the core of our nations vacation center. One of the cities that offer some of the best activities is Fort Myers Florida. This city has a wide variety of activities designed to satisfy the tastes of all who visit.

The beach area is one of the main draws of this city, especially during spring break. You will find multiple water sports available including jet skiing, wave runners and para-sailing. There are also fishing charters available to hire for half and full day tours. You can also take advantage of multiple dining locations on the beach that face the ocean and provide beautiful scenic views.

Visiting the Edison Ford Winter Estates can give an intimate look into the historical aspects of early Floridian evolution. These two American pioneers spent their winters here and developed the area along with their many inventions. They created botanical gardens that house hundreds of rare and exotic plants. An orchid collection and greenhouse for propagation of the plants is also open for touring. Their homes are open for tours and gift shops have been created for guests to gather remembrances.

If you are a nature buff there are numerous opportunities for jaunts into the wild. Six Mile Cypress Slough offers tours by boat and walking that helps you find wild life and birds. The staff helps guests find photo opportunities of egrets, herons, wild pigs and alligators without disturbing the animals. A walking tour has been created with a boardwalk that leads to a blind where photographers can spend time waiting for animals to approach close enough for picture taking.

The Nature Park at the Shell Factory contains a rain forest aviary containing hundreds of rare and beautiful birds. Additionally, they have a butterfly garden, animal museum and a petting zoo for children. Another nature based adventure available is the Manatee World tours. The boat tours travel daily into their habitat. Manatees are endangered and therefore protected by law so the tours are designed to cause as little disturbance to them as possible.
