Due to the Red Tide beach issue, they were giving free admission the week that I was there. I thought that was really fantastic of them to do that! They have a great pool and waterslide. There is also a toddler area. The grounds looked really nice and included well kept sports fields. I saw some signs regarding different events like yoga, Back to School, and obstacle night. We went because we couldn't go to the beach but even if that wasn't the case, this would be a great place to spend a day!

There is a fair set up in the park this week but still lots of room to stretch, run, skate, bike, walk, jog so get out while it is still cool enough to enjoy and be one with nature.

The park includes basketball courts (indoor, sort of), picnic shelters with grills, a nice jogging/walking path, volleyball courts, soccer fields and even pickleball courts. The playground looks pretty cool and there are benches nearby for the adults to sit while the kids play. Plenty of parking and the park is fenced to keep the kids from wandering onto the very busy Palm Beach Blvd. [Review 13299 overall, 617 of 2020.]

So there's sweet and fluffy reminiscing for that reason. Our first trip over 10 years ago, and we stayed at the Gullwing Resort. It is on the other of the beach, the quieter side, and it was a sweet looking condo. Fast forward over 10 years later, and it looks like Ft. Myers hasn't changed much. It is like they haven't done many updates, and I feel like we are on a beach set back in time. For example, the pier area and stores looks like back in the day. The parking and the surrounding buildings are unoccupied and abandoned. Kinda sad because parts of this beach are beautiful. I hope in time they do some updates to this area. I do love that there are actually beach bars right on the beach and that it is so laid back.

They have lined the bottom of the viewing area with black plastic and the water looks very murky as a result. We saw a few fish leap out of the water, less than a dozen lizards VC and the top few inches of one alligator. Parking was $2 an hour and easy to pay with a C QR code. The bathrooms were clean and there is a cut gift shop with a nice variety of items. The walking trails were plenty close to nature while still feeling protected from the alligators. They had a few volunteers available to talk to as well.

The park's trails are short and easy to navigate, winding along shaded paths that take you along the water's edge. While we didn't spot any manatees on this visit, it was still a nice, relaxing stop. Instead, we saw plenty of rabbits, squirrels, and lizards along the way. There's also a small fishing dock where people were casting lines, and if you're looking for something a bit more adventurous, you can rent kayaks at a nearby location within the park. We stayed for about an hour, enjoying the sunshine and slow pace before heading out. It was the perfect low-key outing -- light activity, peaceful surroundings

Lee County Parks & Recreation took over responsibility of the North Shore Bridge Access from the State of Florida in August of 1987. A pier was added to the park in 2000 which was paid for with proceeds from the three cent bed tax imposed on short-term tourist stays in Lee County. The park is home to the Edison Sailing Center which offers sailing and power boat safety lessons here. Note that although North Shore Park has a beach, swimming is not permitted. Restroom facilities are port a potties. I enjoyed taking a walk on the trail that runs from the parking lot to the base of the bridge. You can get a stunning view of the river, especially at sunset.
