Latest reviews on Collier county's beaches

Barefoot beach
6 Will

We came to this beach with the intention of collecting shells, but unfortunately, there weren't a lot to be found. The beach itself is pleasant, although the shell count is quite low. I'm not sure if this is always the case, but we had more success at Bowman's and Lighthouse Point. On the bright side, the parking payment covers all the beaches on Sanibel and Captiva, and the phone app functions smoothly.

Marco Beach
10 Lena Lockwood

This stunning beach and its facilities are truly breathtaking! ⛱ I have been a regular visitor from the North for years, and I can confidently say that this place is my ultimate happy place on earth. The picturesque sunsets make for perfect photo opportunities, and my kids absolutely adore this beach too. The immaculate grooming of the beach ensures that the white sandy shores are always pristine and inviting.

Tigertail beach
10 Amber Yarlington

The beach is amazing! There is a parking lot available for a fee, and they have a beautiful playground and bathroom facilities. We strolled around the lagoon all the way to the ocean, as we were informed that it was the perfect spot for finding sand dollars. However, despite walking for miles along the beach, I only managed to find fragments of sand dollars. We plan to visit again but at a different time of day to increase our chances of finding whole ones.

Naples beach
10 Ava Rodriguez Hernandez

What a breathtaking beach! The fireworks show was out of this world, I mean, I've seen a lot of fireworks in my life, but this one was hands down the best. The place was swarming with people on Independence Day, but we managed to secure a cozy spot to lounge and soak up the sun.

Bonita beach
10 Kaela Marzetti

This beach is an absolute delight, and I find myself enamored with every aspect of it. The lack of crowds is a breath of fresh air, and the water is simply divine. It's a relief to know that parking is both affordable and plentiful, making the whole experience stress-free. I adore the fact that the cabanas are complimentary, and the dressing rooms and bathrooms are kept in immaculate condition. All in all, this beach is a true gem.

Naples beach
10 Jay Martin

We absolutely adore Vanderbilt Beach. Frequently, we bring our lawn chairs and spend delightful evenings there, relishing the beach and eagerly anticipating the breathtaking sunset. Additionally, there is a convenient parking garage and restrooms located just a few steps away, making it a highly sought-after beach access point.

Please note that lifeguards supervise 4 beaches in the county, but you should rely on more than just them, remember the elementary rules, as lifeguards are not on duty around the clock, even on equipped beaches!
