Downtown Naples resembles an elegant European city, from its ornate architecture to its French restaurants like Chez Boet French and Bleu Provence. During the 1930s, Downtown Naples served as a winter resort, complete with golf courses and hotels. Downtown Naples has a gorgeous Main Street, lined with palm trees and filled with boutiques, art galleries, antique stores, gift stores, and sidewalk cafes.
Another terrific shopping and dining destination is Third Street South, located in Old Naples. This charming shopping district is located in Historic Downtown Naples and includes some spectacular architecture that can be explored by taking a Naples Historic District walking tour. The Third Street Farmer's Market is located behind Tommy Bahama. The weekly market features local produce, cheeses, seafood, baked goods, gifts, and more.
Of course, the beaches of Naples are considered some of the best in the world -- white sugar-sand beaches, crystal clear water, and amazing sunsets.
