Location

Parking situation

90 parking spaces

Florida DEP public access data lists Barefoot Beach Access Park near Bonita Beach Road with about 90 regular parking spaces. It is a Collier County beach access, separate from Lee County's Bonita Beach Park and the deeper Barefoot Beach Preserve approach.

  • Check Collier County parking signs and payment rules before walking to the beach.
  • Use this as a North Naples/Bonita-area public access option when preserve parking feels too limited.
  • Do not confuse it with Lee County's Bonita Beach Park just to the north.
