Best Place to Watch The Sunset in Naples: The Turtle Club
Headed to Naples to enjoy the breathtaking sunsets? Make sure to plan dinner reservations at The Turtle Club, where you can savor fresh Hamachi crudo and dig your toes into the warm sand while watching Naples’ greatest show. After suffering massive damages from Hurricane Ian, The Turtle Club was able to reopen last spring and remains one of the best spots to watch the sunset. Start with a dozen oysters or the crispy calamari, then watch the sun sink below the horizon while savoring entrees like miso marinated sea bass or Thai-spiced grilled swordfish. While the hospitality is top-notch, the true luxury is the stunning location where you can let your troubles fade away with the sun.

More than two decades after my last visit, I returned to the Turtle Club last week to see how the Naples legend was faring after its grand reopening. The last time I visited, I was a junior at Bowdoin College in Maine, George H.W. Bush was president and I was visiting my dad at his condo in the Horizon House building. In 2002, the Turtle Club was a relative newcomer to the Naples dining scene, having only opened in 1998. Since then, a lot has changed for the Turtle Club and me. Most recently, and notably, I moved to Naples full-time and started a family. Meanwhile, just as the kids finally got old enough for my husband and I to get a babysitter and go out to a nice dinner, the Turtle Club suffered terrible damage from Hurricane Ian and closed its doors for 19 months for repairs.
