Boat trips around Cape Coral
Boat rental in Cape Coral is one of the main reasons Southwest Florida is popular amongst boaters: countless destinations for anchoring, beaches and waterways, white sand beaches, the Gulf of Mexico, beachfront parks and pristine waterfront.
Cape Coral is celebrated for its waterfront lifestyle and relaxed ambiance. The city’s location gives access to more than 400 miles of canals as well as the Caloosahatchee. That’s why you have to rent a boat in Cape Coral on vacation.
Combined with eccentric sunsets, incredible fishing and cool breezes, Cape Coral assures a memorable boating experience. You can access the waterways through boat ramps like Rosen Park, Yacht Club, Burnt Store, Horton Park and the BMX boat ramp.
Previously part of Sanibel Island, Captiva is also known as tropical palm island. It came into existence after hurricane destruction and has a sparsely populated community of just under 600 persons. If you need to get away, Captiva will host you.
If you love fishing, Captiva Island is the place to be. You can hire a vessel or fish from the beach, docks or piers. Species include Drum, Bass, Shark, Redfish, Snook, Snapper, Cobia, Mackerel and Tarpon.
