It’s time to hit the beach!

In November? Absolutely!! The average temperature in Fort Myers Beach in November is 81°F high/ 62°F low. Don’t miss the 27th Annual American Sand Sculpting Championships in Ft. Myers Beach, Florida. Watch sculptors from around the world use over 1,000 tons of sand to turn Ft. Myers Beach into a temporary art gallery. Come watch and participate in special events all week long as Master, Advanced Amateur and Amateur competitors battle it out for the number one spot.  All ages are invited to come and learn the tricks of the pros in daily workshops, use their newly acquired skills to compete against fellow audience members, get inspired, and make memories with young ones that will last for years.
