Since 1986, the Louisiana Children's Museum has been a top destination for young visitors and their families. With 147,000 annual visitors, the museum offers a wealth of interactive exhibits and activities that make it a fantastic way to spend an afternoon with kids. The hands-on fun and educational experiences ensure that children are engaged and entertained throughout their visit.

For some cultural entertainment, add Fort Myers' Art Walks and Music Walks to your agenda: these free happenings animate the social scene of the downtown River District at fixed times every month, while shops, art galleries and restaurants stay open until late at night, providing drinks on the sidewalk. The Art Walk takes place every first Friday of the month, 6pm–10pm, and takes you to 13 art galleries that offer self-guided tours and meet-ups with the artists. The Music Walk starts every third Friday of the month at 7pm, with bands and singers taking over the streets, performing in a wide range of music genres.

Known as the "Garden District" for its stunning gardens, canopies of live oaks, and serene vistas, this neighborhood offers a tranquil escape for visitors. A leisurely stroll reveals historic mansions and grand homes that attract both tourists and locals. Coliseum Square and Magazine Street are particularly popular among travelers.

Situated to the northeast of the city, between the Serra Grossa and el Tossal de Manises, this is a secluded beach and is perfect for enjoying watersports.
