check out:
Rotary Park: Set on 97-acres of
land, this park is home to a 9-acre
dog park, an observation tower,
nature trails, an environmental
center, playground, and a summer
camp for children.
Recreation
Averaging around 265 days of bright sunshine a year,
outdoor activities in Cape Coral are a must. The city is home to five golf courses, five
official boating ramps and twelve boating marinas, allowing easy access to the water
no matter where you live. The area also boasts 39 parks, so you can try a different
spot each day of the month!
Four Freedoms Park: This 3.2acre park overlooks the Bimini
Basin and is perfect for a beautiful
sunset picnic. The park offers a
beach area, fenced in playground,
picnic tables, and a multipurpose
recreational facility for children of
all ages.
If your family loves sports, take a trip out to the Cape Coral Sports
Complex – the city’s largest athletic facility. The 52-acre park boasts five soccer
fields, five softball fields, and four regulation-sized baseball fields – all of which are
well lit for evening games and practices. The complex also includes three
concession stands, restroom facilities, picnic shelters and playground equipment for
young children.
Eagle Skate Park: This is
Southwest Florida’s largest skate
park, featuring 27,000 square feet
of ramps, rails and pipes. Located
in central Cape Coral the park is
open seven days a week to all
bicyclists and skateboarders.
Spotting native wildlife is one of the most exciting bonuses about living in
Cape Coral. From the Southern Bald Eagle to the gopher tortoise, you’re sure to see
an array of creatures on any given day. In honor of the city’s official bird, Cape Coral
holds the Burrowing Owl Festival each February, where visitors can take an up close
look at wild animals, walk through a butterfly tent, watch demonstrations on how to
dig owl burrows, and much more.
Yacht Club: Features a sandy
beach, grand ballroom, fishing
pier, Ford’s restaurant, tennis
courts, community pool and
several beach pavilions. Head out
on the first Wednesday of every
month and take part in a sunset
festival, complete with music, craft
booths, drinks, food, dancing and
tons of fun.
With more canals than Venice, Italy, the fishing opportunities in Cape
Coral are endless. With 295-miles of freshwater and 105-miles of Gulf access
(brackish) water, snook, trout, tarpon and grouper are some of the fish you can find
while cruising through the water. And with places like Cayo Costa, Picnic Island,
Sanibel Island and Cabbage Key all within a few miles away, spending a relaxing day
on a remote island is easy! Just pack your sunscreen and paradise is just a boat ride
away.
Caloosahatchee River: Named after
the Calusa Indians, the Caloosahatchee
River flows 75-miles from Lake
Okeechobee down to the Gulf of Mexico.
The water is home to an abundance of
wildlife including manatees, otters,
dolphins and stingrays.
Four Mile Cove: Covering
365-acres of land, this is one of the
largest preserved green spaces in
Cape Coral. Visitors can rent kayaks
and paddle through unspoiled
wetlands or walk on the boardwalk
through tropical mangroves. Keep
an eye out for local wildlife!
