Golf Swing Inside Out Drills

For years you dreamed of owning a boat and a home in Naples, and now you are ready to make it happen. Where should you start your search for the best boating communities in Naples, Florida? Here are a few of our favorite boat friendly communities.

Royal Harbor – East Side of Naples

Royal Harbor is one of the popular boating communities due to its no bridge access to the ocean. This makes it an ideal location for owners of sailboats. You get access to the bay via Gordon Pass. Royal Harbor offers both bay front homes and many homes with excellent views of the bay. You are just minutes away from Ten Thousand Islands, so a great area to start your boating explorations.

The Conners at Vanderbilt Beach

What makes The Conners special is its mix of boating friendly life and access to a great entertainment area. You can spend the day boating then come home and enjoy a great dinner at a local restaurant, catch a movie, or do a little shopping. The Conners accesses the Gulf via canals through Wiggins Pass. Your boat must be under 20’ tall to pass under the bridge. Do you want to spend a little leisurely time boating without going into the Gulf? You can cruise along the bay to Fort Myers Beach through the bay waters.
