Fort Myers Beach (Lynn Hall Memorial Park)

950 Estero Blvd, Fort Myers Beach, FL 33931

Estero Island's anchor — the central public beach next to the rebuilt-after-Ian Times Square pedestrian zone. The 560-foot fishing pier reopened post-Hurricane Ian and is currently the only operating public pier here while the larger one is rebuilt. Wide white-sand beach, casual restaurants on the sand, and a livelier crowd than Sanibel/Captiva to the south.

Mixed conditions today.
