Last summer our family spent 5 days exploring Fort Myers and Sanibel, staying at the Pink Shell Resort. We absolutely loved it and want others to have the same experience. Now you can win your own trip to Fort Myers and Sanibel by entering the You Can’t Choose Your Family Sweepstakes. So check out our favorite family moments from our trip to The Beaches of Fort Myers and Sanibel along with how to enter their sweepstakes.

Our Favorite Family Moments from The Beaches of Fort Myers & Sanibel

Seeing a Pod of Dolphins on Our Boat Ride in Captiva

We went on a Dolphin Tour with Captain Randy and were amazed by the amount of dolphins we saw. They kept following the wake of the boat and jumping in and out of the water. Our daughters still talk about this day a year later.

 

Watching Our Daughter Parasail for the First Time

The Beaches of Fort Myers and Sanibel has so many water activities to enjoy. Our favorite family moment from our trip was watching our then 4 year old parasail for the first time. She is so fearless and adventurous and begged to go. Seeing the excitement on her face while she was lifted up in the air is something I will never forget.

Canoeing to Find Manatees at Lovers Key State Park

Lovers Key State Park has so many things to offer. Our favorite moment there was renting a canoe to explore the canals and lagoons and coming across manatees. We played a game while we paddled to see who could spot a manatee first. When we did, we taught our girls about why it’s important to protect manatees from boats.

Racing Go-Karts Throughout the Night at Zoomers

As a competitive family racing against each other on go-karts at Zoomers was an amazing night. It’s the first place we visited where our daughter was actually able to drive the go-kart on her own. It was such a special moment for her and she expressed her excitement on finally being tall enough to enjoy “big kid activities”.

You Can’t Choose Your Family Sweepstakes

So while you can’t choose your family, you can choose the perfect destination for your family vacation. What better way than to have an amazing family vacation than by winning one. The Beaches of Fort Myers and Sanibel are currently giving you the opportunity to win a 5-night trip to create your own favorite family moments. All you have to do is upload an awkward or funny family story here by June 30th. Good luck!

Hi! We’re The Hambricks

Hi! We’re The Hambricks

If kids live there, kids can visit! That's our motto and you'll often find us exploring destinations most don't find "kid friendly". We've traveled to 35 countries on 6 continents with our children since they were 10 weeks old and share tips to make it easier and affordable. But mom and dad are people too so we also write about solo travel, baecations and girlfriend getaways.
