Long Beach Guidebook
Neighborhoods
Naples is one of the most beautiful coastal neighborhoods of Long Beach, California. Known as California’s Little Italy on the bay, it is the perfect place to enjoy life’s simple pleasures. Sailboats and Duffy boats line the picturesque canals that divide the neighborhood. Gondoliers can be seen paddling passengers along the waterways. Gorgeous waterfront homes create a truly resort-like atmosphere. The neighborhood itself is tucked away in a quiet area. However, the location offers easy access to Long Beach shops, restaurants, and nightlife.
Originally built to replicate a village in Italy, most of the streets have Italian names, and a charming three-tiered fountain sits at the center. The result is a serene, beachfront community that is rich with history. As you stroll along the enchanting canal-lined walkways, you may just feel like you’ve been transported to the coast of Italy!
Naples is the perfect place for a romantic date but can also easily keep the whole family entertained for the day. This neighborhood is definitely worth becoming familiar with for both tourists and Long Beach locals alike.
