Oh, there's some decent enough riding in Florida, just not in Ft. Myers. Sure Sin, you can ride Myachahatchee in North Port. Some of the guys have built a good amount of stunts there, but right now with all the rain the banks of the river have overflowed and the riding is impossible.
If you want to hit some fun trails head up to Alafia River State Park near Sun City Center, or head over to Mulberry (Lakeland area) and hit the T.O.E. or Carter Road. The T.O.E. is more FRish and Carter Rd. is more XCish.
If you've got a weekend to spend, cruise up to Belleview and hit Santos Trail. One of my favorite places to ride in FL. Their campground is now open, so you can stay right near the trailhead.
There IS some riding in FL, just not for a DH bike.
