Those who love sandy beaches will find that not only can Fort Myers property buyers enjoy lying on it, but some will do very special things with the stuff.

Once a year the Fort Myers Sand Sculpting Festival sees artists take to the beach and turn it into a range of fascinating sculptures and objects.

This year the event takes place in early November, with buildings, statues and natural features included in the list of attractions.

Such an event may appeal to many tourists, which could help those investing in Fort Myers property who are interested in buy to let.

Another event that could appeal to many visitors is the Fort Myers Beach Pirate Festival.

Taking place last weekend, this festival is another annual event in which thousands dress up as pirates and engage in mock battles, treasure hunting and storytelling.
