Weather by month
Fort Myers
Florida
A river-and-Gulf town with a bone-dry, near-perfect winter and a wet season that arrives like a switch being thrown.
The best time to come
February through April is the classic run — dry, sunny, and warm enough for the beach without the summer weight. November gives you the same sky with none of the season crowds.
