Shopping along the Beaches of Fort Myers and Sanibel sparkles with gussied up old favorites, plus new choices in galleries, boutiques, malls, outlets, and flea markets. Edison Mall – named for the inventor whose winter home is a Fort Myers attraction -- ranks as Southwest Florida's largest indoor mall, with Dillard's, Macy's, JCPenney, and Sears, plus 180 specialty shops. Magnets at the city's open-air Bell Tower Shops include Saks Fifth Avenue, Banana Republic, Ann Taylor, Williams-Sonoma, restaurants, and a 20-screen movie multiplex.

Just over the bridge from Fort Myers, Cape Coral's Coralwood Shopping Center offers convenience for swimwear to everyday necessities at Bealls Outlet and specialty shops. In North Fort Myers, the 189-acre Shell Factory & Nature Park, loaded with yesteryear kitsch, boasts more than five million seashells and shell applications, from jewelry to shell inlaid toilet seats. Downtown Fort Myers' entertainment district, features renovated shops for books, jewelry, and antiques along with theater, clubs, bistros, coffee shops, cigar/martini bars, and sidewalk cafes. On Fort Myers Beach, Times Square serves as a pedestrian shopping hub for bare feet to high heels. Seafarer's Village sells distinctive decoratives.

On Sanibel and Captiva, Periwinkle Place beckons with shops for art and fashions amid a park-like atmosphere with covered walkways and cafes shaded by banyans. Olde Sanibel Shoppes feature custom jewelry and clothing. Captiva Village Square galleries display antiques from when Lee County hosted inventors like Thomas Edison and Henry Ford. In Bonita Springs, The Promenade has 20 upscale shops and a dining palazzo. Cape Coral streets are filled with furniture, jewelry, and specialty stores. On Pine Island and Boca Grande, known for blending funk with fashion, the shops of Matlacha, Bokeelia and Pine Island Center feature galleries and fun spots for hand-painted coconut postcards and other one-of-a-kinds.

For quality at lower prices, both Tanger Sanibel Factory Stores and Miromar Outlets await with shops for apparel, houseware and gifts from leading manufacturers and designers. As for flea markets, Fort Myers' Fleamaster's Flea Market may be the granddaddy of all, with more than 900 booths, plus eateries. Ortiz Flea Market sells goods plus locally grown strawberries, tomatoes, peppers, and melons.
