Everglades City is located in
Collier County west of
Miami between
Naples and
Ochopee off of Hwy 29 near
Everglades National Park and the
Gulf of Mexico.
Laid-back and less populated, the town can still come alive with boaters, paddlers and anglers heading out on the bay. Look for kayak, airboat and airplane tours on the road into town. Similar of small towns in the Keys or the way Marco Island used to be, Everglades City thrives on its location on the water south of the Tamiami Trail east of where that road turns near Naples. Bait and marine shops are about as plentifull as seafood restaurants, true to the towns history as a commercial fishing center beginning in the 1930s.
