When exploring Rotary Park, you’ll also have the chance to visit the Tom Allen Memorial Butterfly Garden. Housing an impressive collection of native butterflies, the garden lets you see the majestic creatures flutter in peace away from the prying eyes of predators in the real world.
Many of the resident butterflies began their life within this butterfly house, growing to maturity under the eyes of the caretakers before being released into the wild.

The place is always clean, professional, and the employees are super friendly and upbeat. The food tastes fresh and healthy. I recommend one of the smoothie bowls if you haven’t ever had one. The açaí bowl is my favorite one there.

Florida is known for its exceptional golf courses, and this reputation rings true in Cape Coral. And Coral Oaks Golf Course is one of the finest in the state. The real strength of the course, though, is that it’s public.

One of the favorite activities of visitors to the beaches of Sanibel is shell collecting. Colorful, pretty, mysterious, small, and big, the shells make interesting souvenirs. But, why not learn a bit about them so that you can differentiate between your shells and determining whether one is a common fig shell, a banded tulip, ajunonia, or a pen shell? The best place to learn about the shells and the animals that made them is the Bailey-Matthews National Shell Museum. If you are looking for unique things to see & do on your Florida getaway, this museum will delight visitors of all ages.

One of the reviews : Captain Kyle accommodated a very last minute "let's do this" trip for us. He's friendly and knowledgeable. He knows how to find the fish and if one spot isn't showing results he has no problem moving until he finds the hungry ones! We did the 10 hour offshore trip and caught grouper, several different types of snapper, and amberjack. He also stopped a few times so we could see huge groups of jellyfish and a sea turtle on the way back. Highly recommend Bluewater Offshore Charters!!
