Lovers key in Fort Myers area. Almost no reason to go anywhere else, it's sort of just perfect there. When I was in school in Fort Myers we went there all the time.

It's funny to hear people vacation in cape coral. My ex was from there, it was called cape coma and fit the stigma. Mile after mile of inexpensive 3/2 homes, lol. It was sort of where all the rednecks went and lived if they didn't live in Lehigh. Bonita springs was the boating area back then. Well, and Fort Myers Beach of course.
 
Sunset at Big Pass sandbar, with a little celebration drink followed by a twilight ride home! Great day at beach and on the water, loving the beautiful views on the water here.

We will be in Siesta Key the 2nd week of April, Staying at Fisherman's Cove Condos which has docks. Like many above I am looking for storage for the week and or a lift service to put in and take out as we have a painted trailer and would like to avoid launching with it if possible.
What did those of you find on your trip?
