Imagine flying into Southwest Florida International Airport and dodging the crowds of vacationers waiting in line to pick up their car rentals. Imagine being able to rent a hatchback, coupe or SUV for a just a couple of hours or as long as a month. Imagine being able to unlock your rental car close to Fort Myers Airport directly from your phone. With Getaround’s innovative car sharing app, you don’t need to strain your imagination, this is already a reality! Simply download the Getaround app before you fly, and we’ll have you on the road before you can say: “Dude, which way to the beach?”
With its spectacular natural environment (miles of beaches and over one hundred barrier islands), it’s no wonder Fort Myers is such a popular destination. But being so popular can take its toll on the local flora and fauna. In the future, a modern public transport system could do away with the need for many private cars. But in the meantime, Getaround’s solution helps by putting unused vehicles to work by matching hosts and guests from our car-sharing community. And fewer cars on the road means fewer emissions and fewer cars manufactured.
Did you know that Fort Myers is one of THE best places to look for shells in the whole of North America? Located on a large plateau, the swell pushes undamaged shells to this natural “shelf” and onto the beaches. You can even visit the fascinating Bailey-Matthews National Shell Museum dedicated to all things shells and the amazing little critters that create them.
Fort Myers is also home to the remarkable S.A. Feather factory. Founded in 1906, this family-owned company makes feather boas and headdresses for Las Vegas showgirls and decorations for New Orleans’ Mardi Gras. Fancy putting a feather in your cap? You’re in luck, the factory is open to the public.
Want to search for hidden pirate loot? Captiva Island and neighboring Sanibel to the south were popular hideouts for pirates in the 1700s. The most notorious was Gasparilla who attacked over 400 ships before leaping from his ship rather than face capture. Legend has it that his ill-gotten gains are still buried. If you want to search for his missing treasure, there are plenty of pirate-themed boat cruises to choose from – just watch out for Gasparilla’s ghost! But perhaps the real treasure is the beauty of these islands.
When you fancy a change from the beach, why not hop in your Getaround and take a trip to the Everglades National Park? This huge area of tropical wetlands and forest offers countless options for hiking, kayaking and wildlife spotting. By far the best way to experience the Everglades is in one of the iconic airboats. Just watch out for those gators!
Say goodbye to restrictive car rental options and embrace Getaround’s customizable carsharing solution so you can start your vacation as soon as you land! Catch you soon in sunny Fort Myers, Florida!
