Restaurants & cafés
Sea Salt Naples
Fabrizio Aielli's seafood-and-Italian flagship in the heart of Third Street South — house-made pastas, a serious raw bar, and a wine list with one of the deepest Florida-state-wine sections in the country. The gold-standard Naples dinner.
Bar Tulia
5th Avenue South Italian small-plates bar from the Osteria Tulia team — focaccia, fritto misto, and a craft-cocktail program that holds its own against the food. The casual-but-serious dinner in town.
Trails & outdoors
Corkscrew Swamp Sanctuary
Audubon's 13,000-acre sanctuary with a 2.25-mile elevated boardwalk through the largest old-growth bald cypress forest in North America. The closest thing to wilderness within day-trip distance of Naples.
Clam Pass Park
A 3/4-mile boardwalk through mangroves out to a beach the developers couldn't reach — narrow, undeveloped, and the most peaceful Naples beach within 10 minutes of downtown.
Things to do
Naples Zoo at Caribbean Gardens
43-acre zoo on a 1919 botanical-garden site with a boat tour through islands of free-roaming primates, giraffe feedings, and a feline conservation program. Better than the city's size predicts.
The Baker Museum at Artis—Naples
The art museum half of the Artis—Naples complex — contemporary American, photography, and a glass-tower installation by Dale Chihuly. Compact, well-curated, and the city's serious art venue.
Landmarks & sights
Naples Pier
The 1,000-foot wooden fishing pier at the foot of 12th Avenue South, the city's de-facto town gathering spot. Sunset on the pier is the everybody-does-it Naples ritual — and worth it once.
Fifth Avenue South
Naples' walkable main street — six blocks of sidewalk dining, galleries, fashion boutiques, and the city's prettiest evening promenade. Live music spills out of the bars most weekend nights.
