About Naples Beach

Naples Beach epitomizes the sophisticated Gulf Coast lifestyle, where pristine white sand meets turquoise waters in one of America's wealthiest coastal communities. The beach stretches for miles along millionaire's row, offering spectacular sunset views that draw photographers and romantics from around the world. The iconic Naples Pier, rebuilt after Hurricane Ian, extends 1,000 feet into the Gulf and serves as the perfect sunset observation platform and fishing spot. The sand here is remarkably soft and cool, composed of fine quartz crystals that make barefoot walking a pleasure even on the hottest days. Beach-goers often spot dolphins playing in the surf, and sea turtle nesting season (May-October) brings additional wildlife viewing opportunities. The downtown Naples shopping and dining district is just a short walk away, making this beach both accessible and upscale.
