What we’re about
✨ Welcome to Wine, Dine and Finds! ✨
I am so proud to be a part of this community — we live in PARADISE… let’s explore it together! 🌴☀️
I started Wine, Dine and Finds in November 2016 as a way to discover all the amazing things our area has to offer. Over the years, we’ve made incredible memories and, more importantly, lifelong friendships. 💕
We host 3–4 events most months, mainly exploring Cape Coral and Fort Myers. Some of our favorite activities include:
🍷 Dinner & drink pairings
🐬 Dolphin and sunset cruises
🎨 Art and cooking classes
🎭 Theatre nights
🥂 Wine tastings
🌳 Picnics in the park
…and so much more!
💡 This is not a dating group. My goal is for everyone to feel safe, welcome, and free to just have fun with friends.
➡️ Everyone is welcome to join! My only rule is simple: please be kind.
I truly hope you decide to join us — and when you do, I hope you’ll get as much out of this group as I have. 💖
