It's All Here

The renowned Waterside Shops are located at the southeast corner of Pelican Bay, and feature some of Naples' finest dining, coffee shops, ice cream parlor, and retail shops. And just so residents never have to go too far, the northeast corner of Pelican Bay is the location for The Marketplace, which also offers many dining options, as well as a wide variety of shops and services.

For desirable beach dining, Pelican Bay itself offers residents a variety of dining options, sure to please any taste, at four beachside restaurants. The Sandpiper Restaurant and The Beach Café are at the north beach, and the Sandbar Restaurant, Sunset Café, and South Beach Store & Ice Cream parlor are at the south beach.
