Naples Landing Park

Naples Landing Park offers a convenient public boat ramp for accessing Naples Bay in downtown Naples. The facility features 3 launching lanes, courtesy docks, and 35 trailer parking spaces, making it well-suited for kayakers, canoeists, and motorboats. Amenities include restrooms, picnic pavilions, benches, and a playground area, providing a comfortable base for a day on the water.

Naples Bay is a sheltered estuarine waterway ideal for paddlers seeking calm waters and scenic mangrove exploration. The launch provides excellent access to nearby Rookery Bay National Estuarine Research Reserve, located just a few miles away, where paddlers can explore pristine mangrove-fringed waterways and freshwater wetlands. The location is easily accessible from downtown Naples at 1101 9th Street South.

For access and permits, contact Naples City Hall at 239-213-1819 or check with local community parks for launch permit information. The park's downtown location makes it a popular spot during peak seasons, so arriving early is recommended for optimal parking and ramp availability.
