Naples Ranks High On “Most Relaxing Beaches” List

Posted on May 23, 2011

A recent article in U.S. News Travel magazine ranked Naples Florida beaches as the #5 “Most Relaxing Beach” in the United States and the Caribbean. [although I am a bit perplexed as to how Corfu made the list at #6 since I believe it is in Greece, yes?] Anyway, Naples beaches are pretty spectacular. When customers tell me that they are first time visitors to Naples, but follow that comment with: ‘I really don’t like Florida, but have heard so much about Naples that I wanted to check it out’, I tell them: “Naples is unlike any other coastal town in Florida!” Whereas many other Florida beaches are lined with hotels & motels, bars & restaurants, and neon signs leading you into souvenir & T-shirt shops…our beaches are predominantly lined with quiet residential neighborhoods, including the entire beach front south of Coquina Sands comprising of only family homes, mostly mansions, along the gulf. Each avenue ends at the beach with public beach accesses. The multiple entrances guarantee less crowded beaches, even during our peak season there is plenty of room for everyone to spread out. You can walk south for nearly five miles from Golf Drive, past the historic 1000′ Naples Fishing Pier, all the way to Gordon Pass without seeing a highrise. The beaches are wide, the sand is soft & pristine white…Very few ‘Spring-breakers’ come to Naples because it doesn’t have the same draw as, let’s say, a Ft. Lauderdale or a Clearwater Beach…Not a lot of loud music or frisbee throwing going on here.

I think “relaxing” best describes our beautiful beaches…hope to see you getting a little bit of Naples’ sand between your toes soon!
