Guide to Marinas in Naples, Fort Myers Beach, and Southwest Florida

Southwest Florida is where the state's boating culture shows its range. To the south, Marco Island and Naples open onto the Ten Thousand Islands and some of the wildest backcountry in Florida. To the north, the Caloosahatchee carries boats inland toward Lake Okeechobee while Fort Myers Beach, Sanibel, and Pine Island ring an estuary famous for tarpon, redfish, and sandbar afternoons. The waterfront here has rebuilt with real determination since Hurricane Ian came through, and the marina scene reflects the local fleet: center consoles and bay boats by the thousand, which makes dry stack storage the defining institution of the coast. A rack under a roof, a launch request from your phone, and the boat waiting at the dock when you pull in is the standard this region set for everyone else. One practical note: when the winter residents arrive, demand for racks and slips tightens fast, so the owners who line up storage in the quiet months are the ones relaxing in January.

Waypoint lists nearly 700 verified marine pros across Florida, every listing checked against the business's own website. Here are nine marinas from the storage side of the directory, running south to north.
