      Description of Fort Myers Beach Mooring Field

      The Town of Fort Myers Beach proudly operates and maintains the Matanzas Harbor Municipal Mooring Field. The field boasts 70 mooring balls available for public rental year-round, and accommodates vessels up to 48 feet in length. The mooring field is located east of the Sky Bridge between San Carlos and Estero Islands in Matanzas Pass. For recreational cruisers, the Fort Myers Beach Mooring Field is a wonderful destination. Coming ashore at the Town's dinghy dock puts boaters in walking distance to beaches, restaurants, shopping, nightlife, and public transportation. Mooring ball rental fees are $13/day or $260/month. All renters MUST register with Matanzas Inn upon arrival. The dinghy dock is available for public use to tie up dinghies 10' or less (no overnight tie-ups). The dock is located beneath the Sky Bridge between Matanzas Inn Restaurant and the public fishing pier. Glad to see the most positive review below of SALTY SOUTHEAST CRUISERS’ NET SPONSOR, Fort Myers Beach!

      My wife and I visited FMB last march 3/10. We had cruised there 22 years ago and we GLAD to see town moorings, and less derelicts , although it seems they still had a couple of leftovers? We enjoyed the town and the beach and many of the local restaurants and stores. The Harbormaster `bubba’ runs the pump out boat and was a great help and a great source for information. However the LARGE HARD encrusted mooring balls did a number on my new alwgrip hull paint job!$#!$#!!?. If you are not able to pull the entire ball out of the water, BEWARE.!!

      We had no problems with the mooring rubbing on our boat fortunately. The showers are pretty low rent ‘“ like an old motel room. You step into a bathtub to shower. The shrimp are great across the way at Tico. Fresh & very reasonably priced. Bonita Bill’s is the only saving grace in this very honky tonk beach town. It’s a veru dog-friendly bar/restaurant. But watch out for the resident cat, Splash. He roams at will. Fort Myers Beach is a fine stop over if you’re going north on the west coast of Florida or heading south to the keys. Small grocery store about a 2 mole walk on the beach.
