It wasn’t long
ago that Estero and Bonita Springs
were known mainly as points between
Naples and Fort Myers, easy to miss
if you blinked. Today, Bonita is one
of the fastest growing areas in the
country, Estero isn’t far behind,
and the changes there are impossible
to miss.
In Bonita Springs, upscale
communities line U.S. 41. High-end
restaurants, shops, and other
businesses have been quick to follow
in such centers as the Promenade at
Bonita Bay, so those who enjoy
dining and shopping have no shortage
of choices. Golfers also have a good
selection of courses from which to
choose.
Just east of this polished swath of
development remains old Bonita, a
homey cluster of shops, restaurants,
and neighborhoods that have stood
for decades. Bonita celebrates its
fishing and agricultural heritage
each March with the Tomato Seafood
Festival.
Of course, one of the main
attractions in the Bonita area is
the beach. Many beachgoers head to
the public areas at Bonita and
Barefoot beaches to stroll the
clean, wide shore, play in the clear
Gulf waters, and exclaim over
dolphins curling through the waves
just off shore. Farther north is
Lovers Key State Recreation Area.
There’s plenty of room to stake your
own spot on the sand, fish, or kayak
through the interior waterways where
you’re likely to encounter a
manatee-or several.
