In Southwest Florida, affordable real estate isn’t the only amazing factor we have going for us. In fact, throughout the year, you can find tons of enjoyable activities to keep you busy. And many of them are also cost-effective and won’t break the bank.
As the end of summer approaches, you might be looking for a few of these fun activities. And whether you’re a SWFL homeowner or just visiting the area, each one of these will be sure to please. Best of all, they’re just as much fun alone, with a friend, or with the grandkids!
Walk One of Our Amazing Gardens
From the gardens at the Edison Ford Winter Estates to the Marie Selby Botanical Gardens, our area has so many wonderful gardens. Walking them can be a relaxing way to spend your day, as you take in the beauty of nature. If you’re a SWFL homeowner, you have the added benefit of picking up great ideas for your own garden!
Hit the Splash Park with the Kids
Whether we’re talking about your children or the grandkids, a splash park can be a great change of pace from the beach. At the same time, this is one of those end-of-summer activities that can get all that energy out of them before heading back home.
Take a Day Trip to One of Our Coastal Cities
Sanibel, Ana Maria, Marco Island. When you own a home in Southwest Florida, you have the option of so many day trips, and each one of them is a little different. If you’re visiting, don’t miss any of these!
Enjoy a Staycation Right in Your Own Backyard
Even if you’re a local homeowner, you can also take advantage of living in your own slice of paradise. For example, you can spend the day lounging on Fort Myers Beach. Or maybe sharing tasty drinks with friends at Ford’s Garage is your thing. Either way, this is an excellent choice!
Throw a BBQ Get-Together for Your Friends
Speaking of backyards, throwing a BBQ event guarantees a good time. And as we head toward the end of summer, we’ll also get that slight cool down, where the weather isn’t as humid but still sunny. This is the time that I love to have everyone over to appreciate each other’s company.
Go Shopping at the Upscale Outlets
Finally, there’s always shopping. Locally we have several upscale shopping outlets with all the name brands. Since end of summer is also back to school time it gives you the chance to buy anything your kids or grandkids might need too.
