Cape Coral is Your Gateway to Paradise. We call it that because it's a water wonderland, offering over 400 miles of canals, and with access to the Gulf of Mexico. Often termed "The Cape" and uniquely located on a large peninsula in southwest Florida, Cape Coral real estate is a tropical paradise surrounded by the white sand beaches of Sanibel and Captiva Islands, the fishing villages of Matlacha and Pine Island, and Fort Myers — the "City of Palms".
The Venice of America
With the magnificent Caloosahatchee River on the eastern side and Matlacha Pass to the west, Cape Coral boaters can access the blue-green waters of the Gulf of Mexico directly from a canal in their backyard! Young families and retirees buy Cape Coral real estate for permanent residency or for vacation homes, because they want an easy, relaxed lifestyle — their own little piece of paradise.
