Positioned on a 10-mile long sandy, white beach, the Gulf of Mexico lapping gently at its shores; where expert golfers, tanning enthusiasts, nature lovers and those who crave elegant tranquillity are drawn: this is Naples, Florida. A beach city of pastel colours and swaying palms, dozens of superb golf courses, surrounding rich environs of ancient Cyprus and Slash pines, wet and dry prairies, and even the allusive Florida panther, Naples is a beautiful spot to spend some time.
With well-manicured parks and blossoming trees, street sculptures and a vibrant live music scene, a casual walk-through of Old Naples is a wonderful way to spend an afternoon. Venture outside the city to discover the history of the area. The Seminole people migrated to the Naples area from other parts of the US when settlers took their lands (Seminole translates to “wanderer”) and the Ah-Tah-Thi-Ki Museum offers well-presented insight into the native history of the region within the Big Cyprus Indian Reserve. The Preserve of the same name is a wonderful walk in nature, with orchids and the sweet scent of pineapple in the air from the lush epiphytes which grow here in abundance.
Catch a boat to Marco Island and scoop up interesting handiwork from a local craftsperson in this groovy fishing village with a chill vibe or head back to downtown Naples and peruse some of the best boutiques Florida has to offer along 5th Avenue or 3rd Street South. Dining standards are possibly the best in the State of Naples where ornate presentations and haute cuisine with seafood at the centre make for unforgettable meals along the gulf.
