LaBelle serves as a focal point along the southern banks of the Caloosahatchee River, where the Hendry County Courthouse and the La Belle Bridge anchor the town center. The landscape north of the river is defined by a vast network of watercourses, including the meandering Pollywog Creek and Bee Branch, which drain through the wetlands toward the Gulf. This 2021 survey illustrates the transition from the organized street grid of the county seat to the sprawling ranch lands and citrus groves to the north. In the rural areas, the small settlement of Muse stands at the intersection of local roads like Walter Greer Rd, while the Sundance Farms Airport and Silver Lake Ranch reflect the region's agricultural and aviation character. The Okeechobee Waterway follows the river's path, serving as a historic transportation artery through the heart of Hendry County.
