Hi everyone!

I'm currently in Naples and would love to see some alligators in the wild while I'm here. I'm not looking for an airboat ride or any kind of guided tour. I'd rather just walk around somewhere on my own and hopefully spot a few.

Ideally it would be somewhere close to Naples, so no long drive. Parks, nature preserves, boardwalks, trails, or even a pond where they're regularly seen would all be great.
Any tips on the best time of day to go, or anything else I should know?

Thanks in advance!

Hello.
Any recommendations for restaurants with happy hour food and beverage specials in either Naples or North Naples areas, convenient to Rt. 41? Somewhere that can accommodate about 15 people. Thank you!!

Hello , does anyone know of a pet friendly (small dog) rental home available in Naples or Bonita ? Thanks much !

Hello! I'll be visiting my dad and bonus mom Oct 23-30. They of course want to show me around and take me places, but sometimes can lose the nuance in my disabilities. I have multiple sclerosis and spinal issues. I can walk but need either a cane or rollator (I'll have both with me) and can really struggle in heat. Honestly as much as I'd love to explore outdoor activities and know there are a ton I have to steer towards indoors most days. A flat park with a solid walkway or a boating tour that doesn't require 5+ terrain changes would be doable one or two days. We all do enjoy art and classical music. They bring up often how impressed they are by the names Naples is able to bring in so there may be opportunities there. At the end we'll be meeting my husband in Miami for Flugtag so I have to conserve energy for that! (just as spectators, but going off the platform in a wheelchair glider would be epic. Lol)

As the title says, found what look like female meta raybans in the case

Hi fellas, i am looking for somebody/a company that it’s trustworthy, won’t try to scam me cross selling things i don’t need and that can help me build a modern website that actually does something. I am not looking for a digital flyer.
I am in the building & remodeling field, so obviously showcasing our projects and previous work is important, but i also want the website to actually bring in leads and help us grow the business.
Not necessarily looking for the cheapest option either. I understand good work costs money, i just want to make sure i’m paying for something that’s actually worth it.
Would appreciate some recommendations, especially if you’ve personally worked with them and had a good experience. Preferably somebody local in Naples or SWFL.
Thanks!!

Hello everyone! I have a brief survey that all adults in Naples, Florida are welcome to answer pertaining to Canadian tourism in SWFL since 2025. This is totally confidential, and any answers would help a lot for my research project. Feel free to share with your friends!

This is a long shot, but I’ll be replacing my brakes soon, and my car has an EPB system that makes the process a bit more complicated. I wanted to ask if anyone has the following tools I could borrow. I’m willing to pay to use them
- An EPB compatible scan tool that supports brake service mode for a 2022 Kia
-A rear brake caliper piston wind back kit with a compatible adapter

Hey! I'm a long time resident of SWFL and I am looking for cool people to hang out with down here. I have friends but they're all busy with work and they don't intend to get costumes or celebrate Halloween.

Anyone down here young and open to hanging out somewhere? Would love to be able to go to Halloween parties or clubs or something but I'm just newly able to start spending time away from work and I intend to enjoy it while this lasts. I'm a 34M living in fort myers but I can go as far as Miami or Tampa or whatever with cool people.

Hmu if you would be down to have someone like me join you, especially for Halloween stuff. I can carry myself financially for everything and I bring a goofy but clever sense of humor and I get along with everyone, don't care about your age or political stances or anything.

I will say, I like to party, but I drink responsibly. I don't mind if you smoke, but I won't.

Hope this reaches the right people! Maybe if you're looking for something similar we can meet up.

Who is good in town for dying and matching gray. Want to stop coloring but not look like a skunk for a year.

Corvette got swallowed up by a sinkhole in The Moorings, local guys at Bakers Towing got it out.

I'm pretty excited that we'll be celebrating our 17th anniversary but I've failed to plan a proper celebration/dinner. Does anyone have any recommendations for Saturday evening that are fun and casual? We've always had a great time at Off The Hook but are open to recommendations.

UPDATE: We chose Blackbird, largely due to the recommendations from this community. Thank you all so much! I feel like the response to this post is a positive example of Naples and why Naples truly is special. Thank you to everyone!

Looks like they have cleaned up much of the loose items and battened down just in case.

In March I am proposing on the beach in Naples. Looking for photographer recommendations (no budget).

Just wanted to see if anyone in the Naples/swfl area has had successful under eye rejuvenation & can recommend a Dr. I’m trying to find a someone skilled in volume restoration in the under eye area preferably an actual cosmetic surgeon over a med spa aesthetician since undereye area is delicate. Thanks.

I've used Joe Water for several years. They do a reasonable job for the monthly service. After Ian, I had to gripe until Joe (who had sold the company) got involved to resolve my problem. This month, they posted an 11% increase. FWIW, I haven't had a call in years. Is there a better option? I just want someone to check on my system from time to time, change the filter, and come when I have a problem without gouging me. I don't think that is too much to ask.

** I should say that JW went from $65 6o $72 a month. I am ready to do without a monthly plan

Hi! I had an interview regarding nurse residency with NCHS hospital and they were all lovely. How is it working there? Prime regional also reached out for an interview but not sure if I should explore. I already accepted the job offer for UF but liked both of my interviews. Naples is beautiful but so expensive, how much is the pay with them? So I can make my decision regarding which hospital to work at since I’m relocating

How much is PRMC hospital paying for new grads? Just got an email that NCHS is paying $31

Well there has been a lot of progress on the pier. They have stripped the forms at the center pavilion and installed some of the wood. The pile work is almost done as they are driving the last of the piles on the outer pavilion. They have started forming on the outer piles as well. Today the crew started running in from the site so I looked closer.... Seems they had a visitor...

Which stores have the best selection?

Hi guys,
What does everybody do around here to have fun that’s not drinking? Lol.

My high school sweetheart and I just broke up, and I have 0 friends here. I'm originally from West Palm Beach; I moved here for work in 2024. I work for a small tech company from Belgium.

I have two cars I'm building out, I do computers, guns, electric guitar (barely), video games occasionally.

Not really too interested in co-ed stuff, but if that's what's popular, that's fine. Just looking to make some guy friends.

Thanks!
