Naples

Naples, Long Beach, CA

The Basics

Its Venice-style layout makes Naples the perfect place for a stroll along the walkways and bridges that connect the canals. Make sure to venture into the center of the middle island to see the 3-tiered fountain. If you’d rather be on the water, you can explore the canals on a kayak ride or a gondola tour operated by a gondolier; gondolas and kayaks launch from the Leeway Sailing Center. For an aerial view of the neighborhood, opt for a helicopter tour.
