Four Mile Cove Ecological Preserve – Cape Coral, Florida

Opinion, SW Florida Events, SW Florida News
Today my son and I spent about 2 hours within the trails of the Four Mile Cove Ecological Preserve right here in Cape Coral, Florida.  Located just south of the Midpoint bridge, right on the Caloosahatchee River.

Cape Coral Spreader Canal

Another reason in our area specifically I suppose, everyone got…
