The Naples Pulse Weekly is a free, personalized events newsletter that delivers a curated roundup of the best local events directly to your inbox every Wednesday morning.

With over 90 golf courses in Collier and Lee counties, Naples is one of the golf capitals of the United States. From private club invitationals at Pelican Marsh and Grey Oaks to public events at Tiburón and Lely Resort, there's always a tournament or outing to watch or play. We track member-guest events, charity scrambles, demo days, and pro-am tournaments across the Naples area so you never miss a tee time worth knowing about.
Naples' cultural scene punches well above its weight. Artis—Naples (home of the Baker Museum and the Naples Philharmonic) anchors the arts district, while the Naples Art Association, Galleries on Fifth, and the Marco Island Center for the Arts keep the visual arts thriving. Theater lovers have the Gulfshore Playhouse, TheatreZone, and The Naples Players. We round up gallery openings, performances, museum exhibitions, and art walks happening this week so you can plan your cultural calendar.
Living in Naples means living on the water. Whether you're into offshore fishing charters out of Naples Bay, sunset cruises through the Ten Thousand Islands, kayaking in Rookery Bay, or paddleboarding at Delnor-Wiggins Pass State Park, there are organized events and guided outings happening every week. We cover boat shows, fishing tournaments, sailing regattas, and waterfront festivals across the Naples and Marco Island area.
Southwest Florida's natural environment is one of its greatest assets. From guided walks through the Corkscrew Swamp Sanctuary and bird-watching at the Naples Botanical Garden to beach cleanups at Vanderbilt Beach and trail hikes in the Big Cypress National Preserve, there's no shortage of ways to enjoy the outdoors. Naples' mild winter and spring weather makes this the peak season for outdoor events, nature photography workshops, and garden tours throughout Collier County.
Naples is a city that takes pride in its homes and gardens. From the annual Naples Flower Show to home design expos at the Naples-Fort Myers Greyhound Track, and the popular Distinctive Homes tour in Port Royal and Aqualane Shores — there's always something for people who love interior design, landscaping, and architecture. We track open houses at showcase properties, garden club meetings, landscaping workshops, and home improvement events.
