9. The World-Famous Everglades National Park.

While you’re here you’ve got to see the Everglades, so KAYAK OR TAKE AN AIRBOAT TOUR of the world-famous Everglades National Park. Even seasoned paddlers are blown away by the system of secluded islands and enchanting mangrove jungles that form an ecosystem unlike any other in the world.

8. A Couple’s Massage At A Luxury Spa.

From the hot stone treatment and signature Balinese Massage at the MARCO ISLAND MARRIOTT to the ecstacy-inducing “Serenity for Two Couple’s Retreat” at the WALDORF ASTORIA NAPLES, bliss is better when you both experience it at once. The latter takes place at the Waldorf Astoria Spa’s private villa, and includes blended aromatherapy oils, a tandem soak in an oversized mineral bath, a Fijian scalp massage, two flutes of bubbly, and more! Every honeymoon in the Paradise Coast demands at least one day of all-out couple’s pampering, so treat yourselves…the BEST LUXURY SPAS will have you basking in bliss and bring you closer together than ever.

A honeymoon in the Paradise Coast isn’t complete without a day at Barefoot Beach.

 

 

 


6. Charming Old Naples.

Stroll and shop through charming old Naples, and enjoy an alfresco lunch on 5TH AVE. SOUTH.

5. The Naples Zoo.

Come face-to-face with giraffes, lions and other wild animals at the Naples Zoo. If you’re not quite ready to explore the depths of the Everglades, this is just one more fun way to catch a glimpse of some incredible wildlife in the Paradise Coast.

 

 

 


4. In The Gulf of Mexico.

Sail and snorkel in the beautiful turquoise waters of the Gulf of Mexico.

Priceless memories on the water is a big part of what beach honeymoons are all about.

 

 

 


3. On A Dinner Date.
