Delnor-Wiggins Pass State Park
A state beach on the northern edge of Naples with about 1.6 km of natural white sand. It is often ranked among the best beaches in the United States.
Delnor-Wiggins Pass State Park occupies a barrier island at the northern tip of Naples. Its roughly 1.6 km of beach remains in a natural state, with fine white sand and calm water, making it ideal for swimming, snorkelling and shell collecting. At the northern end, Wiggins Pass is a good spot for fishing and dolphin watching. The park has an observation tower, picnic shelters and showers. Admission costs about US$6 per vehicle. The car parks often fill up on weekends and during the winter high season, so arrive early. The drive from the city centre takes about 25 minutes.
