Hey there, golf lovers! Ready to swing into the vibrant golf scene of the greater Fort Myers area? With nearly 50 top-notch courses, this is a golfer’s playground where tee time is anytime, whether you’re a pro or just playing for fun.
Our golfing heritage is as rich as our fairways, with a history dating back over 90 years. It all started with Donald Ross, a big name in American golf, who designed the Fort Myers Country Club. This club set the standard high right from the start. And let’s talk about our courses! They’re not just any greens; they’ve racked up their fair share of accolades. Take the Eastwood Golf Course, a public favorite, or Jack Nicklaus’s masterpiece, Old Corkscrew Golf Club – the only course in the country with his signature design. Pretty cool, right?
For those seeking a classic experience, Coral Oaks Golf Course in Cape Coral is a must-visit. This traditional course is nestled in the heart of Cape Coral, a vibrant hub known for its exquisite waterfront dining and various entertainment options.
Additionally, for a unique golfing experience, consider visiting Salt Leaf Golf Preserve, where the beauty of the course is matched only by the quality of play. And for families or those looking for a more nontraditional golfing adventure, Topgolf Fort Myers and PopStroke Fort Myers are excellent choices. These family-friendly attractions offer a mix of fun and challenge, with PopStroke Fort Myers featuring a putting course ingeniously designed by Tiger Woods and his TGR Design team.
Think a day of golf is enough? Nope! Many visitors make a whole vacation out of it, basking in the Gulf-side luxury of our resorts. But hey, if you’re just in the mood for a quick round, the back 9 is always waiting.
And if you’re up for more than just golf, Fort Myers and surrounding areas are a haven for all sorts of outdoor fun. From water sports to scenic hikes and even Spring Training baseball, there’s something for everyone.
