Default Fort Myers, FL Area Question

Flying to Ft Meyers next weekend for a few days, getting away from this ridiculous cold spell in the Midwest. Any must do / must see / must eat at recommendations around Sanibel, Captiva, Naples, etc? Primarily going for the beach and sun but also planning on renting a bike for one of the days there. Thanks.

I live here and I admittedly take it for granted. As of now the weather is perfect and the water is nice.
Anything you HAVE to do?
I wouldn’t know what that would be.
What do you want to do?

The Thomas Edison house is in FT Myers area. The worlds smallest Hooters Restaurant used to be on Ft Myers beach but that was 10 yrs ago when i was there.
Docs Beach House on Bonita Beach is great for sunsets
