You're in luck, Deb, as you're mere minutes from one of Naples' best beaches, Clam Pass Beach Park. The parking lot for the beach is close to the Waldorf Astoria Naples on Seagate Drive (about a mile from Neopolitan Way). A three-quarter mile boardwalk will take you to the beach (you can walk or hop the free tram). Cass Beach regularly gets featured as one of Florida's best beaches and is slightly less crowded than the beaches further south. Another beautiful beach to visit is Delnor Wiggins Pass State Recreation Area, which is a few miles north of Clam Bay. This is a beautiful spot, with activities including swimming, sunbathing, snorkeling, shelling, and guide nature tours. For what it's worth, the well-known "Dr. Beach" rates Delnor Wiggins as one of America's top 20 beaches; http://www.drbeach.org/GulfCoastFlorida.htm
