Breakfast at Blueberry's is wonderful - it's like a throw back to the days when food was honest and without pretension. Pancakes are my favorite, but everything on the menu is good!

Pelican Larry's is your quintessential "Florida" beach bar scene. Plenty of space for a large group to go watch a game, and a large bar and food menu. It's a fun atmosphere for those looking to let loose a little.

Shopping
Hi-end, outdoor shopping scene with stores. I love to grab a cuppa to-go and stroll through this beautiful outdoor mall. There are covered walkways, complete with ceiling fans to keep you cool in the summer. The fountains are beautiful and the property is kept pristine. Go on Sundays for Bloody Marys in the courtyard.

Essentials
This is my absolute favorite grocery store in all of Naples. It's a small, farm-to-table store, complete with a butcher shop, seafood counter, fresh produce, and many fun higher-end grocery items. Go early during season to avoid the crowds, as it is a small place and is popular.

Entertainment & Activities
We like Paragon, as opposed to the theater in the Mercato, because it's lesser known, but just as wonderful. It's even a couple dollars cheaper! The theaters are all clean, and the reclining seats are wonderful!

Sightseeing
5th Avenue is iconic in Naples. Park in one of the free parking garages and plan to take an hour or two strolling up and down 5th. It's great for shopping, dining, and people watching. During the holiday season, this is where you'll see the parades and live music happening. At night the palms are lit with white lights, setting the scene.
