About Surf Fishing Fishing in Naples
Naples, Florida offers some of the finest surf fishing fishing on the Gulf Coast. Naples is an upscale fishing destination where the calm Gulf waters, expansive backcountry, and proximity to the Everglades create an extraordinary range of angling opportunities. The mangrove estuaries of Rookery Bay and the Ten Thousand Islands backcountry are home to snook, redfish, tarpon, and juvenile goliath grouper, while the nearshore reefs and wrecks hold grouper, snapper, and permit. Offshore, the Gulf waters west of Naples produce excellent catches of gag grouper, red grouper, amberjack, and kingfish, with deeper runs yielding mahi mahi and cobia. Naples Pier is one of the most iconic fishing landmarks in Southwest Florida, offering shore-based anglers a shot at snook, pompano, and Spanish mackerel. With year-round warm weather, pristine waters, and experienced charter captains, Naples delivers a premium fishing experience. The surf fishing waters here — calm bays, estuaries, grass flats, and mangrove-lined shorelines — provide world-class angling opportunities that draw fishermen from across the country.
