City of Naples

The City of Naples is nestled in Collier County, on the pristine southwest Florida coast. The City began as a small, frontier-style fishing camp and was officially incorporated on December 1, 1923. Through the years, the City has grown to be recognized as one of the Gulf Coast’s crown jewels.

The City’s 450 employees are dedicated to providing friendly and innovative services for our 20,000 year-round residents, 15,000 seasonal residents, and the nearly two million annual visitors from all parts of the world that come to relax on our white sandy beaches.

With our subtropical climate tempered by the soft breezes from the Gulf of Mexico, people are struck by its natural beach beauty and the flora and fauna that are unparalleled in any community. While the City of Naples remains the cultural and activity center of Collier County, the tropical wilderness of the Florida Everglades is less than 20 miles away and easily accessible by land or by boat.

In addition to our natural features, the City of Naples boasts of wonderful lodging and dining opportunities, as well as world-famous historic shopping districts. Mention areas like “Fifth Avenue South”, “Third Street” or “Tin City” and locals and their guests smile with delight from memories of good times had.

We hope that you will explore all that our beautiful city offers. To learn more, visit www.NaplesGov.com.
