Naples FL - Full Speed Ahead!  N0 Bridges to the Gulf of Mexico

No bridges to the Gulf!  There are three main passes to the Gulf of Mexico for boaters in the Naples, FL area.  Two of those, Gordon Pass and Doctors Pass have no bridges to restrict your boat height or mast height for sail boaters.  The third major pass is Wiggins Pass and those boaters south of the bridge at Bluebill Avenue have to be able to clear 19 feet (MHW).

To the south, Gordon Pass is the access from anywhere in Naples Bay to the Gulf of Mexico.  Click on the links below to view  homes for sale in Port Royal, Aqualane Shores, Windstar and the Royal Harbor area.

The middle pass in Naples is called Doctors Pass.  There are some single family homes in The Moorings and Coquina Sands with the coveted feature of no bridge access for boaters to the Gulf of Mexico.  These houses are found on certain sections of Mooring Line Drive, Bow Line Bend, Bow Line Drive, Windward Way and Leeward Lane.  Click on the link below to see single family homes for sale in these neighborhoods:

There are also condos on the market for sale located on Moorings Bay with no bridge access for boaters through Doctors Pass.  These condos offer some of the best value in the entire Naples area for boaters. There are  spectacular water views and quick, no bridge access to the Gulf.  Click on the link below to check out condos starting from the $250’s:

 The Naples real estate market is coming back strong – don’t wait any longer to buy your piece of Paradise.  As always, it is the waterfront properties that lead the way…… and they only made so much waterfront.  They made even less with no-bridge access to the Gulf.

Ellie - I remember seeing first time those "fixed bridges" when we were looking for a house for our client in Fort Lauderdale area.

We don't have them in our area, though

Ellie, Great information for the wannabe boaters in your area!  With bridge size restrictions, or just the hassle of waiting for opening times, having that free passage to the Gulf is a critical feature for a boater!

I pass on the passes? lol...Actually It brought memories of when I house-boated and took a right turn and ended up being stopped by a low bridge that could not be navigated. I had to run in reverse for about 1/2 hour as I couldn't even turn around....Thank you and good post

Jon - I do like the sight of bridges, but when it comes to working with our buyers with those big boats, you wish we didn't have any.

Bliz - Learnt a lot about boats just because of the bridges we have.  Makes it tough for buyers with sail boats.

Paula - Naples is truly a beautiful place.  I hope when you come to visit that you would give me a ring.

Richie - and you don't want to be on the bay waters at low tide either.  

Sarah & Les - Thank you for your endorsement.  You get to learn a lot if you want to work with boaters.

Jimmy - I fell in love with Naples at first sight.
