Fort Myers is a charming Gulf Coast city known for its beautiful beaches, historic estates, and laid-back vibe. With scenic waterfront views and nearby islands like Sanibel and Captiva, it’s a perfect spot for sun, shelling, and serenity.
When you charter a private jet to Fort Myers, you’ll soar into the commercial center for Lee County in southwest Florida. Every year, travelers flock to Fort Myers for its access to Sanibel and Capitva Islands where beaches and outdoor adventure await. Here’s what you need to know when chartering a jet to Fort Myers.
The original Fort Myers was built along the Caloosahatchee River as a base during the Seminole Indian Wars and was named after Col. Abraham C. Myers. Abandoned in 1858, the fort was later taken over by federal troops during the Civil War. Although the fort is now gone, you can still see history come to life when the battle of Fort Myers between southern and northern troops is reenacted every year at the North Fort Myers Cracker Festival. Fort Myers is also recognized for one of its most famous residents, inventor Thomas Edison, who set up a laboratory in town and was recognized as a strong force in the city’s development, including the many palm trees that now line Fort Myers’ downtown streets. Visitors can visit Edison’s Seminole Lodge, which is located next to Henry Ford’s winter estate, to see his many inventions, flora and fauna experiments, and research papers on display.
The winter estates of Thomas Edison (Seminole Lodge) and Henry Ford (The Mangoes) are major attractions for those visiting Fort Myers. Visitors can take a tour of the historical buildings and botanical gardens, and visit the museum with its many inventions, artifacts, and special exhibits. The Imaginarium Hand’s On Museum and Aquarium is a great place to take the kids to see the interactive exhibits, including a hurricane simulator.
Lakes Regional Park is known for its trails and wildlife and bird viewing. You can rent a boat and go freshwater fishing or take a ride on the Lakes Park & Gulf Railroad’s miniature train, which takes passengers on a 15-minute ride through the north end of the park.
Nearby, Fort Meyers Beach is a popular locale for snorkeling and kayaking. The islands of Sanibel and Captiva, accessible along the Sanibel Causeway, also have many amenities. On Sanibel, play a round at the Beachview Golf Club. For adventures on the water, take a fly fishing expedition with Captain Mike Rehr, or contact Captains Joe’s Charters for:
