Any recommendations on good places to swim in Ft Myers? I will be staying close to the beach and was hoping to get any help/recommendations from locals or folks that have stayed there before. "Places to swim" link did not have many suggestions. Thanks
Pat yes living in the corn fields of Indiana does tend to narrow the mind a little. Funny I was just looking at an aerial view of Ft Myers yesterday and was thinking it would be cool to swim to Sanibel Island and back but I would probably get arrested for doing that. I will do an open water or two while in town I am sure.
Actually, you probably wouldn't get arrested, but while crossing the channel, there would be a high probability of death by boat collision. Some weekends, it's not even safe to cross by boat. :-)
It sounds like you are all set, but if it rains, you can cross the bridge into Cape Coral and swim at The Wellness Center: www.leememorial.org/.../index.asp. Only 4 lanes, and sometimes there are classes, but indoors. There is a fee (maybe $10). LMK if you want info.
