Top Reasons to Spend Fall in Fort Myers Beach

Why visit Southwest Florida in the fall? Fewer crowds, vibrant Florida sunsets and festive seasonal events make September, October, and November and the following months some of the best times to visit Fort Myers Beach.  

Whether you’re planning a family-friendly vacation in Fort Myers, a romantic Florida getaway for two, or an Oktoberfest to remember, a fall getaway at Pink Shell Resort is the perfect way to experience the Sunshine State. Here are a few reasons to spend your fall with us in Fort Myers Beach.

Southwest Florida Without the Crowds

Warm enough to enjoy the beach but cool enough to keep the crowds away? No, you’re not dreaming: Fall truly is the ideal time of the year for anyone who prefers more room to spread out on our secluded white sand beach.

Access to Beach Activities

With fewer visitors than our busiest months, that relaxed fall vibe also means you’ll face less competition for the area’s most exciting recreational activities.

Water Sport Rentals

Rent a WaveRunner during your vacation to Pink Shell Resort in Fort Myers Beach for an unforgettable adventure on the Gulf of Mexico. Riding on a WaveRunner is a fun activity for the whole family because our Yamaha 4 stroke WaveRunners accommodate up to three riders at once! Rent your WaveRunner right at Pink Shell Resort on Fort Myers Beach—it’s that convenient.

Fishing

September – November are among the best months to fish in Fort Myers. Crisp mornings, calm seas, and unbeatable fishing make fall the Gulf’s hidden gem. Join a guided fishing tour or dock at Pink Shell’s marina and head out for a day where the only thing better than the view is the catch you’ll reel in.

Raise a Glass for Fall Festivals & Events

When it comes to fall festivities, there are plenty of ways to embrace the season at Pink Shell.

Island Hopper Songwriter Fest

The Island Hopper Songwriter Fest returns to Pink Shell every September! Guests with a room reservation get complimentary entry to the festival’s closing event, the Pink Shell Pool Party.

Cape Coral Oktoberfest

Spanning six days, two weekends, three music stages and two dance floors, Cape Coral Oktoberfest is the largest Oktoberfest in Florida. Featuring an extensive menu of Schnitzel, bratwurst, potato pancakes and all manner of imported German beers, the only thing missing from this celebration is you.

Fort Myers Beach Ghost Tours

Halloween means spookyfun in this part of Florida. Fall is the perfect time to take a guided ghost tour around Fort Myers and learn all about the city’s mysterious history. After getting a scare, come back to your comfortable (ghost-free) room at Pink Shell and relax by the pool.
