Things To Do

Marco Island Bike Rentals

Café de Marco

Cute little restaurant with higher end food choices than your average fish sandwich and fries!

Bayfront of Naples

Get breakfast, lunch, or dinner and cocktails right by the Naples Bay

Mercato

Shopping, food, bars, live music, nightlife, car shows, art shows etc

The Cabana Bayfront

Sit right next to the bay under the gazebo bar, or grab a table with friends under an umbrella. They don't serve any food unless it's a garnish for your drink!

Oakes Farms Seed to Table Market

The coolest grocery store you've ever seen! Organic meat and seafood market, organic veggies, coffee bar, smoothie bar, ice cream bar, 2nd level cocktail bar with live bands playing which overlooks the grocery store, mini restaurants inside, shopping carts with cup holders for your wine or beer glass, endless ideas!

Naples Zoo at Caribbean Gardens

Bistro Soleil at the Olde Marco Inn

Authentic higher end French cuisine

Dolphin Tiki Bar & Grill

Tiny outside bar/restaurant on the water packed with people from all walks of life!

Island Gypsy Cafe & Marina Bar

Outdoor bar on the water with decent bar food and drinks

Goodland

Off the beaten path historical fishing village. Looks like a ghost town from Easter to October. Then a packed outdoor parking lot party all fall and winter at picnic tables with several options for food and drinks within walking distance of one another.

The Board Room Tavern

Cute little bar with open courtyard and tiki hut stage with live entertainment sever nights a week until 9pm. Where Trista sings some open mic nights.

Smith House

Where our wedding dinner will be held, but good bar food, catch of the day specials in a cute little farmhouse-looking restaurant

Outdoor Karaoke and live entertainment on the water. Tiny tiki bar outside, out side sidewalk Cafe dining, inside air conditioned bar and hightop tables. Bar food, good pizza, drink specials most nights.

Tigertail Beach

This is a state park with a white sand beautiful beach. It looks like the desert meets the ocean! CONS: You will walk in the sand for at least 20mins to touch the ocean once you get to sand after a 5-10min walk from the car! Travel very lightly!

Marco Island South Public Beach Access

This is public beach access where our ceremony will be. If you're not staying somewhere beachfront, you'll probably pick this over Tigertail Beach as others are "members only" and private beaches. BEWARE: Parking is EXTREMELY limited. You'll need to get there before 9am!

Empire Bagel Factory

Get there early morning for some of the best fresh baked bagels outside of NYC.

Ave Maria

We discovered this community one day by accident! There's many new beautiful, affordable (for the general area) homes, cute little shops, a university, and the thing YOU CANNOT MISS THE ABSOLUTELY GORGEOUS CATHOLIC CHURCH! It will certainly take your breath away! This is about an hour drive away from where we live in Lely, FL.
