SOUTHWEST FLORIDA
A SUBTROPICAL WONDER OF THE NATURAL WORLD
Encompassing more than 100 miles of sugary white sand beaches and thousands of acres of protected nature and wildelife preserves, Southwest Florida is unlike anywhere else in the world.
THE GREAT OUTDOORS
With Charlotte Harbor to the north, the Everglades to the south, vast nature and wildlife preserves to the east, and the Gulf of Mexico to the west, Southwest Florida is topographically and ecologically unique, meaning there's no place like it anywhere else on Earth.
Also home to the official “Sea Shell Capital of the World” – Sanibel Island – Southwest Florida’s coastal waters, lush flora, and abundant fauna draw visitors from around the globe.
Southwest Florida is also considered the “Golf Capital of the World,” and is home to Spring Training for the Boston Red Sox and the Minnesota Twins, as well as some of the best birding, boating and sport fishing on the planet.
Since 2017, sunny Southwest Florida has consistently ranked among the top fastest-growing areas in the U.S., and in 2022, Fort Myers was named the #3 Safest Place to Live in the U.S.
