Fort Myers Beach, on the north end of Estero Island, was first inhabited by the Calusa about 2,000 years ago. They successfully resisted Spanish attempts at colonization, including those of Ponce de León in 1513 and 1521, but declined over the next 150 years from disease and conflict. In the mid to late 1700s Cuban fishermen settled a small fishing village, a rancho, on the island.
American settlement began under the Homestead Act of 1862; that year Robert Gilbert received a homestead at the end of today's Connecticut Street, the highest point on the island. In 1911 William Case developed the first subdivision and cottage rentals, and by 1914 the whole island had been homesteaded, with little industry beyond a hotel, fishing, gardening and a sawmill run by the Koreshan Unity of Estero. The island was then called Crescent Beach. Growth came in the 1920s, when Florida became a national vacation spot. A toll bridge to the mainland opened in 1921, followed by two casinos, hotels, a pier and the island's first canal, but the land boom ended with the hurricanes of 1921 and 1926.
