Naples BeachesFor an overdeveloped and upscale city like Naples, Florida, the beaches are remarkably well cared for and preserved. It's no Sanibel, but there are plenty of trees and there is the beautiful Clam Pass County Park which is quite a jewel. Naples beaches have lots of tropical foliage, making them the most tropical looking beaches on the Gulf Coast of Florida. In particular, near the Naples Pier, the tall coconut palms are at their best. All of the residential neighborhoods are lush with tropical foliage. Naples beaches include Delnor Wiggins State Park, Vanderbilt Beach, Clam Pass County Park, Park Shore beaches, Lowdermilk Park, and street-end beach accesses north and south of the pier. Below are beach scenes from Naples. Downtown Naples is literally steps from one of the best public beaches anywhere, Lowdermilk Park Beach. You can park at the beach (metered), enjoy yourself on the beach, then walk a few steps to downtown Naples for lunch or shopping (upscale). Naples offers plenty of hotel rooms, but on the beach, renting a Naples beachfront condominium would be the most likely option. The Registry Resort is located at Clam Pass County Park, and would be an option for staying near the beach. |
