Lakes Regional Park Park ·$

Lakes Park is one of the most popular recreational areas in-and-around Fort Myers. The 279-acre (112 hectare) park has several fresh water lakes perfect for swimming, fishing or hopping aboard a boat. Officially, swim season starts from Memorial Day to Labor Day, but throughout the year you'll see people wading in and out of the water. You don't have to go in the water however, because there is still a 2.5-mile (four kilometer) paved path used for running, rollerblading or riding your bike. Additionally, the Fragrance Garden offers a unique sensory experience and other picnic areas, concession stands, a miniature train ride, boat rental and showers, further delight visitors.

A little oasis in the middle of the city - lovely boardwalk with insane amounts of birds around. Super beautiful to walk through and just be in and the park is very well kept up.

I’ve gone a few times and now that I’ve got the layout down, I must say, it’s a great park with lots to do and cover. The biking paths are substantial as well as the bike rentals you can choose from and the on site railroad museum and caboose rides, the community garden, the hiking paths and bird watching, its plentiful indeed. Great any time and the weekly, seasonal fatmers market on Wednesdays from October thru June from 9am - 1pm is a must go for some great bites and drinks.

First time in the park. Planned to visit the railroad museum and take the train ride as 3 adults. Richard, the volunteer in the railroad museum, was very informative and friendly. The train ride, to our delight, had comfortable padded seating. Cute 1 mile ride around the ponds and through the park. The concession stand looked nice with various rentals available like surreys. The children's playground was quite large, although we had no children with to really experience it. Paths looked well maintained. Will definitely want to return.

Several people recommended this park as a good place to sight birds and observe nature.So while my husband ran some errands nearby; I did a short bird walk.In less than an hour; I saw 15 species of birds, a few Green Iguana and numerous flowering trees and bushes.The park is kept very clean, people were polite and friendly and as a woman walking alone; I had no apprehensions.Next time when I go back I will allow at least 2 hours to explore. It's worth it.
