Best time to visit Fort Myers

Fort Myers offers year-round sunshine, white sand beaches and coastal charm, but some seasons bring distinct perks for travelers.

  • Spring (March – May): Warm days and low rainfall make spring an ideal time for beach outings, boating adventures and shelling trips to nearby islands.
  • Fall (September – November): Slightly cooler temps and fewer tourists make fall a peaceful time to enjoy the coast and historic downtown.

Keep in mind:

  • Summer (June – August): Summer offers vibrant sunsets and lush scenery. It's also hurricane season, so brief afternoon showers are common, but mornings and evenings still shine.
  • Winter (December – February): Winter draws snowbirds looking to escape the cold. Popular spots may be busier, but the weather is near perfect for outdoor activities.
