Here in Naples, Marco Island and the Everglades, sunshine is always on the calendar – even if event schedules shift. Here’s what to expect in the season you visit. Winter When northern temperatures take a plunge, sunseekers and “snowbirds” flock to the shores of Southwest Florida. The sun is always out, and you can expect outdoor festivities like vintage car shows, open-air art festivals, exceptional food and wine events and more. Spring When spring comes around, families head to Naples, Marco Island and the Everglades for an unforgettable vacation. It’s also when the beloved Swamp Buggy races take place. Summer Be part of a nightly celebration of the sun setting over the Gulf – the summer months make for prime sunset viewing due to atmospheric conditions. Plus, July 4th fireworks are a blast. Fall The open-air activity extends through fall when spooky season inspires family fun. And when the holiday season begins, the Florida’s Paradise Coast’s outdoor spaces are pure magic, as palm trees twinkle with thousands of tiny lights and communities embrace the glow of holiday cheer with lighted boat parades, open-air markets and “snow” falling on Third Street South. Stone Crab Season A season unto itself, stone crab season officially begins October 15 and lasts through May 1. Visitors from near and far enjoy the mighty crustacean whether straight off the docks or as a seasonal restaurant delicacy. EXPLORE EVENTS Click here to discover more events in Paradise.
