Attendees Love Meetings in Naples, Marco Island and the Everglades

Naples, Fla. (2006) – If you’ve never brought an event to the Paradise Coast of Naples, Marco Island and the Everglades, you might not realize what you’re missing. From excellent resort-based meeting and conference facilities to fantastic social, recreational and team building options, planners have plenty to choose from to create an event that will exceed expectations and create fond memories for participants.

The more than 20 miles of white sand beaches lining the Gulf Coast shores of Naples and Marco Island provide the perfect backdrop for conferences, meetings and incentives. Recognized as one of the 20 Best Beaches in America in 2006 by Condé Nast Traveler magazine, these sands are perfect for simply relaxing or staging an elegant sunset cocktail reception.

Let the area CVB assist you with selection of off-site locations for special receptions and activities. Sail the Gulf on the Lady Stirling schooner or the Naples Princess yacht; organize deep sea or back country fishing expeditions; take a guided kayak trip on the Everglades Wilderness Waterway; put together a golf tournament for meeting attendees; shop the boutiques and art galleries of downtown Naples; find the perfect private dining room for your board of director’s meeting; organize a memorable evening event complete with gourmet dining in view of African wild animals at the NGALA private reserve; stage a cocktail reception aboard the Naples Zoo’s primate expedition cruise; or put together fun-filled family options such as Everglades airboat rides, shelling and dolphin watch cruises to nearby islands, Segway tours of downtown Naples or visits to area attractions including Naples Botanical Garden and the Naples Zoo.

If unique fun, adventure, and training are goals for your event, enlist the expert assistance of Adventure Training Concepts, staging exciting team training scenarios with James bond, great race, military, survivor and a whole host of other themes customized to highlight your specific goals and objectives. Scenarios take full advantage of the beautiful and pristine wilderness areas just minutes from the resorts of Naples and Marco Island.

Travel to the area just got easier with the opening of Southwest Florida International Airport’s new multimillion dollar Midfield Terminal in South Fort Myers, with vastly expanded gate facilities and flight options; or fly directly into downtown Naples with three flights daily on Delta Connection from Atlanta.
