I lived there for nearly seven years. So many memories, some bad, but mostly good. I felt great peace living there and will never forget living, and working (I was a county park ranger) there. Beautiful in nature and environment, but I think for pure tropical beauty, Sanabel Island was the best. I miss Fort Myers, where I had many happy memories with my best friend. He's recently passed and I and his family will return from out of state to release his ashes into the gulf. I know when I return to Fort Myers, it will be bittersweet, but I'll always have those fond memories to remember and smile upon.
I grew up there in Ft.Myers, some 45 years ago. It was beautiful then, and looks to be the same today. Great city, great memories. Thank you for sharing this gem..
It’s crazy because I was born in Fort Myers but only lived there for about the first year of my life, but going back as a kid to visit my uncle it somehow always felt like home to me. It’s a great place.
Love my city ❤️ I never knew how much I loved it till I moved away, took me a few years to move back. I'll Never move away again. To you who complain about it, maybe it's not your home. That's fine. But it doesn't make it any less perfect for the rest of us.
Crystal Bearrington Moved here from Chicago a year ago...vacationed a few times before... Its a perfect American city with many immigrant cultures that "HONOR" Americana.
I’m actually living in Lexington but I grew up in fort Myers . I really miss it so much !!! Your right. I never knew how much I miss it till I moved away . I admire the state . It’s just too expensive
The work by county wide high school students to buy the Six Mile Slough took two school years. I was part of that group. We made history by putting the ballot initiative on the 1976 ballot for the citizens to vote on and for the first time in Florida history a tax raising proposal passed in a presidential election year.
So the history of Ft Myers originated in the genocide of Seminole Native Americans. How sad. The tour was excellent. You covered all the major aspects, though I wish you had mentioned the work climate, what type of industry (besides sports) it supports, type of jobs out there. And please turn off the music which is really annoying when you have a speaker. Please do a tour of Miami as well. This was very good. Enjoyed the wildlife parks very much!
You might spell it correctly. As a visiting Canadian from Toronto, I found the city quite interesting and not boring at all. Did you not visit the Henry Ford/Edison park?

Fort Myers is approaching 80,000!!
Metropolitan area approaching 1,000,000.
Well this video is from 2014.
Half of these places weren't even there when I grew up there back in the 1970's.I probably wouldn't even recognize the place now..
Who decided to put the music on right channel and this guys voice on left channel? Fire that person.
Yes, I thought the same too, the music/sound is certainly annoying. 🙂
Like old vaction planning vhs tapes.

I DONT KNOW WHY BUT IM NOT ATTRACTED TO FORT MYERS...
I wish this city gets bigger in 2025
I've been to hard on my hometown
Cant hear a word he said. Shame, it looked interesting.
Be sure to read up on the corrupt Fort Myers police department before paying a visit. Come on vacation, leave on probation . Stay classy Florida. 😉
Sorry, the music is annoying had to mute your nice documentary
watch out for noseeums
