Visiting the USA is a must, and Florida is even more so! Incredible beaches, landscapes, cocktails and sunsets! Fort Myers is a great place to travel to. But if you are planning to come here, you should know when you should refrain from traveling, and we will also tell you about the best time to go on vacation so that you get the most out of it!

Weather conditions, peak season, hurricane risk period. All these things need to be taken into account before planning. Wyandotte Daily tells you about all the factors in more detail.

Weather conditions

Fort Myers has hot and humid summers. Therefore, if you have a hard time with high temperatures, then do not plan a trip here at this time. The thermometer can reach over 30 degrees Celsius with high humidity levels. This can make outdoor activities difficult. It is best to plan a trip in spring or fall, when the temperature outside is moderate.

In addition, summer is the rainy season. It is then that a large amount of precipitation falls, which leads to frequent showers and thunderstorms. Keep this in mind so you don't spend your entire vacation in a hotel.

Large crowds of people

Fort Myers is always crowded. But there is a period when there are too many tourists. As a result, long lines form near cultural attractions and various establishments, testing the patience of even the most patient travelers. In addition, it can make it difficult to find accommodation.

Winter vacation season

The winter season starts in late December and lasts through January. However, it is the most expensive to visit due to the high demand among tourists. As a result, rates are increasing everywhere, which can "hit" your wallet. If you decide to visit Fort Myers during the winter holiday season, it's important to plan and budget properly. Consider booking your trip early to get the best deals. Also, look for discounted entertainment or attractions to save money.

The threat of hurricanes

Between June and November, Fort Myers is at risk for hurricane and tropical storms. Such weather conditions will not only ruin your vacation, but also pose a danger to your life. We recommend that you follow the weather forecast and take into account any warnings from local authorities.

During hurricane season, it's important to have a flexible itinerary and be prepared for any changes or cancellations. Airlines, hotels, and other tourism-related services may adjust their operations due to the weather. It is advisable to have travel insurance and confirm the cancellation policy in case of unforeseen circumstances.
