Cape Coralβs Most Popular Water Experiences
Boating is the main attraction that draws people to Cape Coral, making a Cape Coral boat rental the perfect vacation or staycation. But Cape Coral doesnβt just mean plain sailing! To help you plan the ideal day out on the water, here are three of the most popular Cape Coral boat rental experiences for you and your crew.
Cape Coralβs Coastline Concerts
For a celebration with a group, drop anchor, and enjoy the live music from the coastline. Weβd especially recommend the Blast on the Bay Songwriters Festival in October, where you can relax with friends on your boat while listening to live music wafting over the bay.
Sunset Sailing on Pine Island Sound
To the west of Cape Coral are numerous islands dotted around the coastline. Not only are these islands stunning to sail around on a day trip, especially incorporating a break on the sun-kissed beaches of Sanibel Island, they also offer some of the most beautiful sunsets in the world over the Gulf of Mexico.
Take Your Pick of Freshwater or Saltwater Fishing
With its impressive canal system and location on the banks of the Caloosahatchee River, Cape Coral opens up wonderful opportunities for both freshwater and saltwater fishing. Take your boat rental out onto canals, the river, or the ocean, in the βfishing capital of the worldβ.
Cape Coralβs Best Bodies of Water for Boating
Dolphin Sighting at Redfish Cove
Take your boat rental out to Redfish Cove, as a fantastic central location to begin your exploration. From Redfish Cove, spend the day exploring the Caloosahatchee River, where you might catch a sighting of a group of dolphins playing in the clear waters.
Nature Watch on the Pine Island Sound Aquatic Preserve
If youβre a nature lover, head over to the Pine Island Sound Aquatic Preserve. You can cruise and admire the beautiful coastline of North Captiva Island amongst others, and enjoy the breathtaking wildlife, like seeing flamingo at JN Ding Darling National Wildlife Refuge.
Parties on the Caloosahatchee River
Join the monthly sunset celebration party at the Cape Coral Yacht Club, where youβll find locals and tourists relaxing on the sand and watching the sunset over the river and the Gulf of Mexico. With your Cape Coral boat rental, you can dock up and join, or make a party for you and your crew.
