Is there a quiet are of the beach near Naples? Also, restaurants???
 
Does that even exist? We are going in a few days. It seems like everyone flocks to that pier area. We are looking for a tad bit quieter. Any suggestions?

HELP It's a week long trip and we want to make the most of it with our family of four.

Clam Pass & Delnor Wiggins Park are both quieter beaches. Barefoot beach away from the main parking area as well.
Vanderbilt gets busy but if you walk a bit north or south from the parking it thins out quickly.

Odd. I always think Clam Pass and Wiggins are the busiest beaches. The quiet ones are several blocks south of the pier and several blocks north of the pier. Also, particularly in the summer, Park Shore area.

Never even saw where Clam Pass was. But, we did spend time on Barefoot. It was gorgeous. Wiggins was great too during the week. Lover's beach was also worth they trip one day. I was amazed at how clean the beaches were with as many people. It gave me faith in humanity again....knowing it's not okay to have a thousand Starbucks cups floating around.
