19th March

On the road Northwest of Fort Myers is the tiny island called Matlacha, a place most people drive through to get to somewhere else. It is an old Florida fishing village home to many brightly coloured art galleries, island boutiques, seafood restaurants and traditional Floridian cottages that haven't been developed or gentrified; an unpretentious place with a real heart.
