Fort Myers/Pine Island KOA
Like so many KOAs (Kampgrounds of America) around the country, the Fort Myers Kampground offers a mix of tent and RV sites, as well as "kamping kabins." It has showers, a coin laundry, Wi-Fi for a fee, a swimming pool and hot tub, a dog park, an exercise room, a playground, a clubhouse and courts for horseshoes, tennis and shuffleboard. For on-site outdoor activities, there are three private fishing ponds, complete with a fish-cleaning station, set in the center of the property. Farther afield, Pine Island sits just off the coast from Fort Myers, with Pine Island Sound to the west of the island and the Matlacha Aquatic Preserve to the east. These islands and waterways offer sea kayaking, fishing, bird watching and hiking.

San Carlos RV Park and Island Resort
Fort Myers Beach is not part of the city of Fort Myers, but a separate community located across the river and about half a dozen miles south of it. Although primarily an RV park, San Carlos does permit tent camping at its sites. It is a waterfront campground with a mangrove area and a sandbar right offshore. However, swimming is not permitted in these areas, so the camp's usefulness to an outdoor enthusiast is limited to wildlife and bird viewing. The typical site consists of a grassy area with a palm tree or two, a concrete pad and a picnic table. The campground offers a coin laundry, free Wi-Fi access, courts for horseshoes and shuffleboard, a spa and an outdoor swimming pool. San Carlos RV Park and Island Resort's location is next to the Estero Bay Preserve State Park.
