Downtown Bonita Springs welcomes you with charm and tradition. Dining, beautiful parks on the river, unique artist cottages and shops, a Farmer's Market, and many special events at Riverside Park. There is ample opportunity for leisure. Enjoy a lazy afternoon picnic shaded by trees that create a canopy above and filter in rays of sunlight. Pass the afternoon away as the Spanish moss sways lightly in the breeze. Stop in the local shops in search of treasures or visit the historic artist cottages. Shop for farm fresh produce, rent a bicycle, kayak or paddle board and enjoy the Imperial River.
