Just next door to Sarasota and Venice, Englewood, Florida and its seductive isolated beaches is refreshingly relaxed, friendly, and unjaded by mass tourism.

The Southwest Region of Florida, between Sarasota and Fort Myers, has comfortable weather year round. At 5 to 25 feet above sea level, the region has a subtropic climate that is checked by the tempering influence of the Gulf of Mexico.

The Peace River, as well as the Gulf of Mexico, contributes to the hot and humid climate in the summertime (but it's not unbearable due to cooling Gulf breezes.)

The winters are lovely with warm afternoons and mild evenings.
