Coquina Sands

Naples beach life at it's finest

Coquina Sands

Naples’ Most Strategic Coastal Neighborhood

Coquina Sands is one of Naples’ most valuable, defensible, and rapidly evolving coastal neighborhoods — offering a rare convergence of direct beach access, architectural freedom, walkability, and proximity to Naples’ most transformative ultra-luxury developments.

Located directly along the Gulf of Mexico between Old Naples and Park Shore, Coquina Sands has become the epicenter of Naples’ next generation of coastal real estate — attracting global developers, ultra-high-net-worth buyers, and landmark branded residential projects.

Once known for its quiet residential charm, Coquina Sands is now widely regarded as ground zero for Naples’ coastal evolution.


Neighborhood Overview

  • Community Type: Non-gated coastal neighborhood

  • Setting: Gulf-front estates + inland residential streets

  • Lifestyle Focus: Beach access, walkability, redevelopment value

  • Character: Established, private, design-forward, future-facing

Unlike planned communities, Coquina Sands offers true neighborhood living — free from mandatory clubs, HOA-driven architecture, or resort density.


Location — Central, Coastal, and Irreplaceable

Coquina Sands occupies one of the most irreplaceable geographic positions in Naples.

Residents enjoy:

  • Immediate access to the Gulf of Mexico

  • Walkability to Lowdermilk Park

  • Minutes to Old Naples

  • Direct adjacency to Park Shore and Venetian Village

  • Central access to downtown, shopping, dining, and cultural venues

This positioning places Coquina Sands between legacy luxury and future luxury — a key reason values continue to accelerate.


Lowdermilk Park — A Defining Coastal Amenity

One of Coquina Sands’ greatest advantages is its proximity to Lowdermilk Park, one of Naples’ most beloved beachfront parks.

Lowdermilk Park Offers

  • Wide sandy beach frontage and calm Gulf waters

  • Shaded picnic areas and walking paths

  • Volleyball courts and open green space

  • Easy beach access without congestion or resort traffic

For Coquina Sands residents, Lowdermilk Park functions as an extension of the neighborhood — ideal for daily beach walks, sunsets, and relaxed coastal living.


Beach Access & Coastal Living

Coquina Sands delivers true residential beachfront living, not resort adjacency.

  • Gulf-front estates with unobstructed sunset views

  • Inland homes within a short walk to the beach

  • Less congestion than Old Naples or hotel-driven corridors

  • Ideal for swimming, walking, paddleboarding, and sunset viewing

This is pure coastal ownership, not shared or commercialized beach access.
