FORT MYERS BEACH - NOT WORTH IT
In my personal opinion, the Vacation rentals are WAY too expensive, the traffic is OUT OF HAND and the RED TIDE makes you sick. Strongly recommend North Florida panhandle, Palm Beach or Other East Coast of Florida Beaches. You deserve better, your money can go way longer elsewhere.
