Retire to Port Charlotte, Florida

Retire to Port Charlotte, Florida the county’s geographical center, and find the Charlotte Symphony Orchestra, as well as the Charlotte County Historical Center, a waterfront museum featuring changing glimpses into the area’s past.

Charlotte Harbor & the Gulf Islands includes the areas of Boca Grande, Don Pedro Island, El Jobean, Englewood-Cape Haze, Little Gasparilla Island, Manasota Key, Palm Island, Placida and Punta Gorda.

Among the many recreational amenities offered in this city include one of the largest malls on the coast, including such stores as: Burdines; J.C. Penney, Dillards; Sears, and more. In addition, taking a short drive north will find you in Sarasota, where you can walk the sidewalks of St. Armands Circle, or visit the outlet mall there as well.

Not too far is the city of Punta Gorda. This historic town lies along Charlotte Harbor, and its streets are lined with royal palms along with restored period homes. It’s a walk back in time! Nearly everything is waterfront here from hotels and shopping to parks and fine dining.

Port Charlotte is a residential community with four golf courses and minutes from the beach. It has been a rave among those who have visited this area, and its residents agree that this is the place to retire to. With its unspoiled nature and small town charm, the community is friendly and inviting. Add the quaint setting of Punta Gorda, and you have a combination that can’t be beat!

While some people prefer the ambiance of big city life, you can retire to Port Charlotte and still take advantage of all of the surrounding cities which offer a myriad of amenities. Retiring to Florida doesn’t have to necessarily mean taking up residence in a bland community where there is nothing to do. Carpe diem! Seize the day and add this wonderful city to your list of places to retire to in Florida.
