Private charter flights to Naples.
Gulf beaches, good restaurants, and a lot of golf.
Naples has white Gulf beaches, banyan-shaded streets, a dining scene larger than the town's size would suggest, and more golf courses per square mile than almost anywhere in the country. It is also the easiest way into the western Everglades.
Buzz Air lands at Naples Municipal (APF), a first-class general-aviation field ten minutes from both Fifth Avenue South and the beach. No connection through a hub, and no drive down from Fort Myers.

What to do in Naples
Naples Pier & city beaches
The rebuilt pier is the town's sunset gathering place, and the beaches running north to Vanderbilt are as fine and white as Gulf sand gets.
Fifth Avenue South
Galleries, sidewalk cafés and white-tablecloth dining a few blocks back from the sand. It is the best evening walk on this stretch of the Gulf Coast.
Everglades excursions
Everglades City and the Ten Thousand Islands are under an hour away: airboats, mangrove kayak trails, and the Everglades at their most photogenic.
Golf, everywhere
Naples claims one of the highest concentrations of golf courses in America. Bring the clubs. Soft travel bags fit the Caravan well.
