Description
One of the world’s most exclusive stretches of real estate, making it a top choice for those wanting to see the finest in coastal living. Sprawling mansions dot the northern end of the beach while more quaint, but still large homes are found near the Naples Pier. Access points and beachfront homes are nicely landscaped with native species like sea oats, sabal palms - the state tree - sea grape and gumbo limbo.
Pros: Wide, spacious beach with plenty of room for locals and tourists. A fishing pier is near downtown shopping.
Cons: The only eyesores on the beach are the large, blue drainage pipes in the surf every hundred yards or so.
Likely visitors: Anyone wanting to see some of the most expensive homes in Florida. Perfect for the wife wanting to shop in Naples and husband wanting to fish the Gulf.
Getting there: There are access points to the beach alongside most of downtown Naples, including 5th Avenue South. The Naples Pier is located at the end of 12th Avenue South.
Parking: Naples pier parking lot: 25 cents per 10 minutes. Metered street parking or free for Collier County residents with beach parking permit.
Facilities: There are restrooms and concessions located on the pier and showers available on the beach. Concessions also available on the pier.
Hours: 8 a.m. - 11 p.m.
Other details: Fishing on the pier is very popular and bait is available for purchase on the pier.

regarding the beach replenishment, what is the schedule for the area south of doctors pass? the last replenishment made the beach a mess- pipes/bulldozers/ and an off shore ship belching thick diesel exhaust. hopefully this effort will be better. appreciate any advice you can provide.
