For years, I’ve been visiting Fort Meyers, Florida and the surrounding area in March, spending time watching my Boston Red Sox get ready for another campaign up north. This Southwest Florida city and the surrounding area is a terrific destination for a late-winter recreational sojourn. And it’s filled with with attractions that go well beyond the spring training homes of the Red Sox and Minnesota Twins. From nature/wildlife preserves to historical sites, there’s more than enough here to satisfy even those visitors who aren’t fans of America’s pastime. And of course there are plenty of beaches.
I recently wrote about the area for a new online travel publication called The Commoner Magazine. They posted my article at the link below. If you’re interested in potential future places to visit for vacations or road trips, make sure to bookmark the homepage for the site. They are constantly publishing great new stories on travel. Happy trails.
