Neat to Know About Cape Coral
Cape Coral has more canals than Venice, Italy—you could say it's "Venice Beach" without the California prices! The city was developed in the late 1950s by the Rosen brothers, who dredged all those canals and marketed it as a "Waterfront Wonderland"—and they weren't just "fishing" for compliments! Cape Coral is home to the burrowing owl, Florida's unofficial mascot, which nests in vacant lots and yards—talk about some seriously "owl-some" neighbors who don't complain about noise! Only about a quarter of Cape Coral's canals have Gulf access, but that doesn't stop it from being one of Florida's top boating communities—residents really know how to make the most of their "current" situation. The city's New Year's Eve fireworks are launched from a barge in the Caloosahatchee River, creating a "blast" of a celebration that reflects beautifully across all those canals!
