The pier is currently under construction after the hurricane. The ice cream stand is still open. There is pay parking lot about a block away. There are also a lot of restaurants within walking distance on 3rd street. This part of the beach can get very crowded, especially after Christmas.
Great view. Saw lots of dolphins swimming just off shore. Lots of people walking the prom and fishing off it. The end of the pier was be reconstructed following Irma, but I can we it being an amazing place to visit when it is all done. 😁
If you visit Naples, you're going to visit the Pier. You have to; a trip to Naples is not complete without walking the Pier (preferably at sunset) at least once. The pier is almost always busy with people meandering and fishing. During season, it's filled with tourists and snow birds. It's a cute date night walk if you've had dinner downtown and it's a very photogenic location.
The Naples pier is beautiful place.
You can watch sunset here and it is incredible. We were also able to see a dolphin swimming around the pier.
White San beach is nice. There are clean restrooms and showers.
Nearby parking cost $2.50 per hour.
Recommend to everyone who visits Naples.
The Naples Pier is a truly unique place to spend a day on the beach. The water and sand was beautiful, the pier was iconic and looked like a masterpiece sprawling out into the sea. There are very nice bathrooms, relatively cheap parking spaces, and this beach's proximity to many downtown attractions and spacious nature makes it much better than Vanderbilt or many of the other beach areas in Naples in my opinion. Also, be sure to take a walk along the beach and admire some of the multi-million dollar homes along the waterfront!
Love the fishing. Free parking till 10 pm you better move it.
or they will tow it
What a beautiful place to watch the sun go down. I enjoyed every minute here. Parking is great nearby and 2.5$ per hour is fair. Kids can play in the warm water or go collect shells.
By far our FAVORITE part of the vacation. We went there probably 3 times in a week's span. It is a beautiful beach and pier. The pier is kept clean and it is FREE. Parking is very inexpensive and 2 hours is only $5 which is more than enough to enjoy your visit. There are lots of benches and the little food place is a great benefit. Water was not expensive at all! Also, we got to see the Dolphins! They are the cutest things! Definitely, a must see when in Naples.
P.S- In Ft. Lauderdale, parking is WAY more and you have to pay to get into the pier AND you have to pay to fish. At this Pier, entrance and fishing are both free.
The Naples Pier/Beach is absolutely beautiful. It's well maintained and has ample parking. Pricing is slightly high for parking which is at $2.50/hour. There is definitely a presence there of parking police. Be sure to watch your time. The Pier is beautiful. It's clean and well kept. Fishing is completely free. No need for any license at all. Residents and out of state visitors are free to fish here at any time. Enjoy.
A great community pier from where you can, fish for fish that normally you would need a charter boat to catch other places. It's the place watch amazing sunsets, see dolphins 🐬 or simply enjoy the breeze coming off the Gulf of Mexico.
My favorite beach. Good parking and facilities. Naples keeps it clean!
Always a great beach. One of the best in SWFl. $1.25 per hr for parking. Great restroom and shower facilities. Pier is awesome. Put it on your list of SW Florida beaches to visit.
Just spectacular. We spotted dolphins and saw the most amazing sunset. Parking meter maid is really strict so make sure you set the alert for your phone to remind you when your parking is about to expire. Only thing is the second time we went the water was not as clear as the first time, but beautiful either way!
I love it for watching and photographing sunsets in Naples! Pier gets very crowded, but even that is fun. Lots of fishing on the pier and pretty birds waiting around for snacks.
