Explore Cape Coral by Boat

There is no better way to experience Cape Coral than from the water. And with no boating license required in Florida, getting out on the Gulf is easier than you might think.

Cape Coral's extraordinary network of over 400 miles of canals connects directly to the Caloosahatchee River and the Gulf of Mexico, opening up a world of possibilities right from your doorstep. Cruise past waterfront villas, anchor off a pristine sandbar, watch dolphins play in your wake, or head out to the barrier islands for a day of swimming, shelling, and exploring. Cabbage Key, Sanibel, Captiva, Fort Myers Beach: all of it is yours to discover, at your own pace, on your own schedule.
