About Naples, Golf

Your Guide to Naples Golf

Throughout the late nineteenth century, stories remarking of the area’s mild climate and abundant fish and game earned comparisons to the sunny Italian peninsula of its namesake.

The name Naples stuck and since has become not only known as a sun-drenched travel destination but as the home of a wealth of great golf courses.

The National Golf Foundation’s latest statistics show that the Naples-Marco Island area is second only to Myrtle Beach in the total number of golf holes per capita and No. 1 when it comes to the number of private holes per person.

A town of less than 30,000, Naples is a favorite among tourists and business travelers, some of which never leave.
