…so you always have easy access to the water no matter where in the city you live.

If you are ready for an excellent Cape Coral boating experience you’ll find that there are many places to set sail from.

Some of these include, but are not limited to:

• Yacht Club Boat Ramp
• Dolphin Marina
• Burnt Store Boat Ramp
• Everest Marina
• BMX Boat Ramp
• Tarpon Point Marina
• Horton Boat Ramp
• Cape Harbour Marina
• Rosen Park Boat Ramp
• Stumps Pass Marina

The Chiquita Boat Lock is another great amenity many residents take full advantage of when cruising the waters.

Located approximately 2.75 statute miles from the Sanibel Causeway Bridge, this lock provides access to the Gulf of Mexico from Camelot Canal and the Southwest Spreader Waterway, via the Caloosahatchee River.

This lock is operated by the Marine Services Division of the Cape Coral Parks and Recreation Department to help manage boat traffic and water levels.

It is the only boat lock in Cape Coral, and it is open 16 hours a day, from 6 am – 10 pm.

After-hour boaters can call the lock operator to gain admission, 239.542.5661.

This lock takes approximately 3-5 minutes to get through, and holds up to 6 vessels depending on the size: up to 75’ with an 18’ beam.

If you just want to go fishing, there are over 250 freshwater fish and a good number of saltwater fish as well.

Hopefully your Cape Coral boating experience is everything you dream it can be.

easy once you understand the street system.

The city itself is broken up into four quadrants, the center falling at the intersection of Santa Barbara Boulevard and Hancock Bridge Parkway.

On the Cape Coral map, Santa Barbara is the east/west dividing street of the city.

The north/south divider is Hancock Bridge Parkway until Santa Barbara, and then it turns into Embers Parkway.

As you move away from the center of the city, the street numbers and addresses increase.

House numbers and street numbers start at “0” from these lines and go up in each direction.

Thus the first part of an address corresponds with the nearest intersecting street. It is also helpful to know what streets run in which direction.

Within each quadrant, street numbers increase as you move away from Santa Barbara Boulevard or Hancock Bridge Parkway. 

To locate an address, first locate the quadrant (NW, NE, SE, SW).

Then review the address to locate the intersecting street.

For example, 4720 SE 15^th Avenue would be in the SE quadrant, located on SE 15^th Avenue near the intersection of SE 47^th Street/Terrace.

If you are still a little confused, it’s okay. Ask us for a FREE map of Cape Coral.

reside in a city renowned for its lack of crime and extraordinary emergency response.

Even though Cape Coral’s population has surpassed 160,000, it consistently ranks among the safest cities in Florida.

With ten fire stations spread across 120-sq miles and a hospital that has the largest Emergency Department in the county, it’s easy to see why the city is continually recognized for its safety and security.

In fact, in 2009 Allstate released a report citing Cape Coral drivers as the best in the state.

So whether you’re in your home or on the road, you’re sure to feel at ease knowing that you and your family are safe.

In addition to amazing hospitals and health care, Cape Coral has an amazing emergency response program.

Cape Coral has developed highly effective solutions to combat challenges that may arise due to inclement weather.

CERT, a Community Emergency Response Team, allows Cape Coral Fire Rescue workers – who have further been trained by Federal Emergency Management staff – to train Cape Coral residents to be able to take care of themselves, their family and assist their immediate neighbors.

The class is free to Cape Coral residents and is held one night a week over the course of eight weeks.

More than 300 people have graduated from the program, emphasizing the success and the community’s interest in safety and security.

fairs, festivals and block parties. These are the Cape Coral events that you won’t want to miss.

There are a variety of events that happen annually in the Cape.

• Red, White and Boom
• Cinco de Mayo
• Oktoberfest
• Festival of the Arts
• Boat Parade

Red, White and Boom is the Cape’s traditional 4th of July party.

Families and friends come together to celebrate this day of independence by watching performances of national music acts, playing a variety of games, enjoying delicious food and beverages, and, of course, gazing at the incredible fireworks show at the end of the night.

The Festival of the Arts was a huge success last year with over 100,000 people attending the festival, truly emphasizing the popularity and success of the event. Everything from paintings and sculptures to jewelry and clothes are available for purchase.

The Boat Parade happens every December and includes a procession of about 100 boats, decorated in a festive holiday fashion with lights, costumes, music – and whatever else their captains can think of.

The Boat Parade is probably one of the most anticipated events around the Cape, whether you’re in the parade or just watching it, you’re sure to have a blast.

Cape Coral also hosts a variety of cultural events as well.

Cinco de Mayo gives residents and visitors a chance to sing along with traditional mariachi bands, dance with folkloric dancers, or sample different Mexican dishes from restaurants around the area.

Oktoberfest is a six-day long event that’s full of singing, dancing, laughter, delicious food and beverages, games and entertainment, that celebrates the German culture.

If you’ve missed out on 1 of the less frequent Cape Coral events, there are always a few more frequent ones, such as Cape Coral’s Bike Night or the Farmer’s Market.

The Farmers Market is every Saturday, October – May.

Cape Coral welcomes more than 100 farmers and vendors from across the state to share their latest harvest with the residents of the city.

Cape Coral’s Bike Night is the perfect event for the motorcycle enthusiast!

If you are interested in any of the events that the Cape has planed in the future you should check out the city’s web site for more information.
