This beach is one of nine beaches in Naples, Florida but is the only one with a pier. You’ll spot more than your fair share of pelicans begging for leftovers from the many fishermen who’ve cast their line. You may even see dolphins and schools of stingrays and fish from the pier! Move from sand to grass by going to Lowdermilk Park, one of Naples’ premier beachfront parks. The park has volleyball courts and picnic areas so you can fuel up and head back into the waters. Should you want more than rest and relaxation and sun and sand, head into the town of Naples, Florida or downtown Naples at 5th Avenue South for shopping, gallery hopping or visiting the zoo! The Naples Zoo has live shows where zookeepers show off some of the zoo’s animals and you can also watch live feedings. For more critter fun, take a daytrip to Corkscrew Swamp Sanctuary to commune with nature.
The Naples Museum of Art has a variety of permanent collections including spectacular glass installations by Dale Chihuly. The museum is located within the Philharmonic Center for the Arts where you can go on guided tours of the museum and learn about all the art it has to offer. If you’re looking to take a stroll in town instead, enjoy the lavish beachfront homes on Millionaires’ Row or head to one of the many other residence-lined beaches in Naples.
