A gated golf and yacht club community on the Caloosahatchee in South Fort Myers, with a 186-slip marina and slips you can buy separately from your home.
Gulf Harbour Yacht & Country Club is a gated golf and marina community on the Caloosahatchee River in South Fort Myers, about five miles by water from the Gulf of Mexico. Shane Waterfront Wilson has fished and boated this stretch of river for more than 30 years and has sold a lot of property in Gulf Harbour.
What sets Gulf Harbour apart is its marina. The 186-slip harbor holds boats from about 30 feet up to roughly 100 feet, and slips are bought separately from homes. That means you can have the boating lifestyle without a waterfront lot: buy the home you love, buy a slip sized to your boat, and walk down to the dock. Shane points out that the channel into the harbor keeps the water flushing, so it stays cleaner than many enclosed harbors where the water barely moves.
On land, Gulf Harbour has an 18-hole golf course, a fitness center, spa services, and dining at Johnny Brown's. Homes cover a wide range. As of late 2025, Shane saw prices from around $400,000 to $500,000, homes in the $700,000s and $800,000s, and multimillion-dollar estates on the river selling from about $4 million to $7.5 million.
Because Gulf Harbour sits on the Fort Myers side of the river, there's no long idle through a canal system like there is in parts of Cape Coral. You're out on the Caloosahatchee quickly, with Sanibel, Fort Myers Beach and the Gulf ahead of you.
Gulf Harbour suits buyers who want a gated, upscale community with golf, dining and a full-service marina in one place. Shane says buyers here usually know exactly what they want, and they're some of his favorite clients to work with.
The Marina
Slips run from about 30 feet up to about 100 feet on the end docks.
Slips are sold separately from homes, so you can pick your home for the house and your slip for the boat. Slip owners pay ongoing fees; ask for current figures before you buy.
The channel into the harbor keeps the water moving, so it doesn't sit stagnant the way it can in some enclosed harbors.
The marina reopened after Hurricane Ian with new docks.

Is It Right for You?
Shane's first question is always the same: what's your application? How you'll use the water decides which home, and which slip, fits.
Riverfront estates have the water at the back door. A non-waterfront home plus a marina slip can deliver the same boating for much less.
Match slip length to your boat today and the one you may move up to. End-dock slips take the largest boats.
Ask early about HOA fees, club membership and slip fees so there are no surprises at closing.
If you want the boat behind the house, Shane will also show you McGregor Isles, Town and River and Palmetto Point, all deep-water neighborhoods off McGregor Boulevard.
