The Imperial River is a river in southwest Florida in the United States. It is fed by the Kehl Canal and marshland at {{Coord|26|22|16|N|81|41|23|W|type:city}}, just east of the city limits of Bonita Springs in unincorporated southwest Lee County. It is approximately {{convert|9.3|mi}} long,[1] from its headwaters just east of I-75 in the Flint Pen Strand,[2] through downtown Bonita Springs and to its mouth at the north end of Fishtrap Bay, near the southern end of Estero Bay. It was originally named Surveyors Creek[3] before the city was developed. The river is part of The Great Calusa Blueway.[4]

On the east side of the Tamiami Trail (U.S. Route 41) bridge, the Imperial River Boat Ramp provides boaters and kayakers with a place to launch their vessels.[5] There is also a small fishing pier onsite. On the west side of the bridge, an {{convert|18.3|acre|adj=on}} park is under construction which will consist of {{convert|2000|ft}} of river frontage and a boardwalk, fishing pier, boat slips and an observation platform with a view of an eagle's nest.[6] Riverside Park in the downtown area provides river access and a bandshell for community events and concerts.[7]
