Here it is – all in one place! As much water as we have around here, the opportunities for waterfront dining are limited. There are just a few beachfront restaurants ranging from fancy to a swimsuit-attire-toes-in-the-sand beach bar place. The waterfront restaurants also cover a wide spectrum of cuisine, cost and ambiance. As you scroll down this page, you’ll find the restaurants first separated between the beachfront restaurants and the waterfront restaurants. Keep scrolling and we’ve listed them geographically from north (starting with the top of Estero Boulevard) to south with the contact information and websites. This list of waterfront & beachfront restaurants is worth gold (or at the very least, worth years of discovery, many vacations to Naples, or a determination to eat out at every restaurant in the Naples and Bonita Springs area).Waterfront & Beachfront Restaurants in the
