Historic Information
Naples Pier
The historic Naples Pier stretches out 1,000 feet into the Gulf of Mexico. Before the railroad came to Naples, FL, all arriving visitors and supplies came by boat and landed at the Pier. The Pier is a great place to fish and people-watch. Located 1.5 miles south of the beach resort.
Palm Cottage
The historic Palm Cottage, just one block east of the Pier, was built in 1895. It is a pristine example of tabby mortar, a homemade-cement, made by burning seashells over a very hot fire; using a species of mangrove called "buttonwood."Guided tours are available through this Victorian-era furnished home. Located 1.5 miles south of the beach resort. NaplesHistoricalSociety.org
