Bonita Springs is a coastal city in southern Lee County, right at the Collier County line between Fort Myers and Naples. It combines quiet Gulf beaches, golf communities and a small downtown on the Imperial River, which makes it a popular winter base for exploring Southwest Florida.
Where is Bonita Springs?
Bonita Springs is in the Southwest Florida region. I-75 and US 41 (Tamiami Trail) run north-south through the city, and Bonita Beach Road leads west to the barrier island, where it becomes Hickory Boulevard. Southwest Florida International (RSW) is about 20 to 25 minutes north. Naples is about 25 minutes south, and Fort Myers Beach is reached by heading north on Hickory Boulevard past Lovers Key State Park. Traffic and beach parking are tightest from January through April, when seasonal residents arrive.
Things to do in Bonita Springs
Bonita Beach Park is the main public beach, a small beachfront park with a boardwalk and swimming area at the west end of Bonita Beach Road. Just south, Barefoot Beach Preserve Park protects 342 acres of undeveloped barrier island on the county line, with a long natural beach and nature trails. Back on the mainland, Everglades Wonder Gardens, a botanical garden and wildlife sanctuary dating to 1936, sits in the downtown district near the Imperial River, which is popular for paddling. Arrive early on weekends for beach parking, and remember that summer afternoons often bring thunderstorms, so mornings are best for the beach.
