The beauty of the Naples coast simply can't be overstated. The water is clear and comfortable, the sand is white and soft, and warm breezes roll gently from the Gulf of Mexico. It's no wonder we are called the Paradise Coast. Our beaches range from natural, secluded retreats to pristine extensions of our vibrant neighborhoods. You can step from bustle of Naples' downtown to the surf near a scenic pier, or you can opt for a more remote beach for swimming, sunbathing, or shelling. With 300 days of sunshine every year, there's an abundance of time to explore each area of our coast.

Naples offers an extraordinary inventory of waterfront homes, many able to accommodate sizable deep-water vessels. Whether or not you are a boat owner, the Paradise Coast is ideal for maritime recreation and luxury leisure. You have immediate access to both saltwater and freshwater fishing and diving, and our clean waters are perfect for eco-tours on kayaks or canoes. If you prefer on-board relaxation to water sport, you will enjoy perfect sunset views from a chartered yacht or sailboat or from your own boat. As a truly coastal community, Naples has many dockside restaurants and shops where you can easily disembark for dining and entertainment before returning on the water.

It's no secret that Naples boasts world-class golf courses - in fact, we have more holes per capita than any other area in the world.
