On a typical day in Naples, we will start our morning by walking along the beach to the Naples Pier, coffee at Tony’ s and a stroll around the upscale 5th Avenue and 3rd Street shops. Another delightful morning stroll is to go over to the docks to read the paper. We might go swimming in the late afternoon, watch a beautiful sunset and walk to 5th Avenue for dinner at one of the wonderful restaurants in the area.
On other days, when we feel like doing more it is always interesting to visit areas that show Southwest Florida’ s wilderness, such as the Fakahatchee Strand State Preserve, Big Cypress National Preserve, or Everglade City. A boardwalk stroll is interesting. Swamp buggy rides (shallow-draft airboat) , for instance out of Everglade City, are exciting.
