We took a long walk along the water in front of Naples Island's beautiful homes, many with lovely gardens. We started by the yacht club. There is a big free parking lot nearby. The homes in that area had the best gardens. You can walk for a couple of hours like we did or just take a short out &... More

The Naples area of Long Beach is a system of canals reminiscent of it's name sake in Italy. It's a great place to take a stroll, eat an ice cream cone from Rite Aid, and relax near the fountain or watching the boats on the bay. During the month of December, the inhabitants decorate for the Holidays and host the... More

Continually frequent the restaurants along 2nd Street and previously worked on Naples Island. Love the people and the neighborhood and the view along the canals! Suggest either renting a kayak during the day, a Duffy electric boat or, of course, the Gondola Getaway to really enjoy the homes and scenery in and around Naples Island..

If you want to find a nice place to dine with the feel of being on a canal in Italy, this is a nice place, nice little Beach area"s, Check this place out, parking in some of the Naples areas is tight, but worth it, bars clubs are nice here as well.

Off the beaten path and somewhat hidden from the passing crowd, Naples Island is one of the most beautiful coastal enclaves in the USA. Multi-million dollar homes line the canals and streets of this tiny island in Long Beach, California. Most of the canal homes are equipped with a small boat dock too. Yes it is definitely decadent and exclusive... More

On our way to Santa Monica, after endulging the Pacific Coast Highway from Laguna Beach to Long Beach we have decided to make a stop here. Parked somewhere on a street and walked here and there to admire the view and the houses of the area. Fabulous.

I definitely recommend for people to go hydrobiking. I got a deal on living social and had no problem making a reservation. It's easy, just schedule your appointment online. The long beach hydrobike staff were very friendly and helpful. Being guided through the naples canal during the Christmas holiday was awesome! Got to know some history on Naples Canal and... More

My wife and I enjoy strolling along the waterfront, admiring the multi-million dollar homes with yachts docked right in front. It's a place to indulge your "when we win the lottery" fantasies. Beautiful, quiet, serene. Often there are small sailboats racing in the bay, and occasionally a powerful muscle boat will glide by with throbbing engines. Wonderful! If you are... More

I used to live very near Naples Island when I was young and to return brought back many fond memories. It is like a different world, very calm and peaceful.
