Everglades City is the place to be if you're a nature lover or into fishing-- pelicans, dolphin, manatee, alligators, all kinds of bird life, and tarpon, trout, grouper, snook & much more. It's an actual working fishing town. From October thru May, most of the Stone Crab claws come in on the commercial fishing boats in Everglades City. The City offers many restaurants, such as the historic Rod & Gun Club (opened in 1864); Seafood Depot (the old train station); Scoop Ice Cream Shop (great noon sandwiches & delicious potato salad/cole slaw-- home made); Camellia Street Grill (fabulous food & live country entertainment Fri & Sat nights during season); City Seafood, Triad Seafood, and many more. It also has a grocery store (at night the owner makes hand-tossed gourmet pizza for take- out-- absolutely delicious), old-time hardware store (used to be the "company store" years ago), two convenience stores with fuel & a Subway shop; a City Hall, a library (which offers internet service located in City Hall), and a museum. Everglades City is an hour and a half from the Ft. Myers Airport; 45 minutes from Naples (great shopping & dining), and 40 minutes from Marco Island (3.5 miles of powdered sugar white sand beach). Both Marco Island & Naples have beaches. Although, if you go by boat from Everglades City, there are numerous beaches on various unoccupied islands (i.e. Picnic key, complete with an outhouse). We also have a small airport.
