The route
Take I-75 west — Alligator Alley — across the heart of the Everglades. It is a straight, easy 2-hour run to Naples on the Gulf Coast. The stretch is remote, so fuel up before you go and keep water in the car.
What to do in Naples
- White-sand Gulf beaches and famously calm water — great for families.
- Sunsets over the water — the opposite coast means the sun sets over the sea.
- Downtown Naples — Fifth Avenue South shopping and dining.
- Marco Island just to the south for more beaches.
Driving tips
- Fuel & snacks before Alligator Alley — services are scarce.
- SunPass-ready car for the toll road; unlimited Florida miles from iRent.
- Combine it with an Everglades stop on the way.
