I have a video driving down Ft. Myers beach in 2013 and I used to go to Ft Myers beach as a little kid in the winter.. insane seeing everything you have seen before just washed away.

It makes more sense to leave it in it's natural state, then to keep rebuilding. You can't beat nature. We owned a house 1 mile from Matlacha. I sold it a year before Ian. Best thing I ever did.

Sad ordeal my girlfriend and I were there about 4ish weeks before Ian, such a beautiful place, and it was my first time in Florida!! I had a really great time there and hopefully in 2024 we will be back!! I have to save the business people there were really great people!!

We were down in Marco Island 3 weeks ago and took a trip to Ft. Myers Beach. I was surprised to see that after 10 months it still looks really bad. I know things take time but not much other than leveling everything that was destroyed is about all that has been done. 90 % of the Island has crime scene tape around buildings with keep out on them. Not much rebuilding is going on right now. At the far south end are huge 2 story concrete townhomes by the dozens that are vacant. There were 2 restaurants open but were windowless with ceiling fans running. It was 95 degrees all week.

What do they say about building your house on sand..........??

Property insurance rates are going to the moon😮

Thousands lost. Not 150. Drone footage good to have on that.

They should never build on barrier islands. The islands are natural buffers against hurricanes.

Sorry to say, but the weather everywhere around the globe will be getting worse. Stay Safe Everyone!

Unfortunately, it will take years to recover from this natural disaster. I'm sure that developers are having a field day with the remaining properties that were abandoned.

I used to live in Cocoa Beach when I was 3 years old back in 2004, we had to get out of cocoa beach, when Hurricane Charley was coming near closer to near landfall, we evacuated to Hernando, now, I live in Titusville, I went through my 4th hurricane in 2016, was hurricane Matthew, I stayed home for hurricane Matthew, and my power went out, the next day we went driving around Titusville, and saw a bunch of damage. Cocoa Beach had the following wrath of hurricane Charley. Titusville took the same following Wrath of hurricane Matthew, Matthew in 2016 did the same thing like what Charley did before. Like what HURRICANE IAN DID LAST YEAR, TAKES OVER HURRICANE CHARLEY’S PATH. When Irma hit, Irma hit several parts of Naples and Marco Island and Florida Keys and key west.
