Cape Coral Shopping

I am not much of a shopper myself - but many of our guests enjoy the following Cape Coral shopping options:

• The Edison Mall, just across the bridge in Ft. Myers, is where the locals shop. You can find out more at their website.



• There are Tanger factory outlet stores on the drive to Sanibel that many visitor's enjoy. We go there for the Big Dog Shop and sunglasses.
• There are quirky shops at Cape Harbor by the Rumrunners restaurant, so if you boat there for lunch, walk over to their quaint street of shops. We look but never buy at these stores as they are a bit pricey.
• There is a huge, amazing pedestrian mall called the Gulf Coast Town Center. I have actually been there twice for their cool shoe shop. The second time was in the evening and the place was hopping - had an open air band and everything. Go to the "Sales & Events" link to find out what is scheduled during your visit.
• The closest shopping mall to Villa Foster is the Coralwood Mall. We sometimes ride the bikes at the house to the movie theater and Chinese restaurant there - although the restaurant is marginal. It is a neighborhood mall, rather than a tourist mall, and offers pretty limited selection. Bealls sometimes has good sales. DO NOT eat at the Cape Crab & Steakhouse in this mall, the service and food have been miserable every time we have tried it.
• The market right next door to Oragami, our favorite area sushi restaurant is very interesting and eclectic. My children can spend hours in there just looking and looking. They have some very unique Florida items and we occasional purchase items from this store.
