The Great Calusa Blueway Paddling Trail is a marked canoe, kayak and stand-up paddleboard trail in the pristine coastal waters and inland tributaries stretching for nearly 200 miles in the Fort Myers area. Attracting everyone from first-time kayakers to advanced paddlers, the Blueway is home to abundant marine life, shore birds and crustaceans. It has been developed by Lee County Parks & Recreation and funded with tourist development tax dollars specifically dedicated to beach and shoreline enhancement projects.
