Naples Grande Beach Resort offers family travelers the chance to create even more memories with the recent launch of their new kids’ summer programming. Located on the Gulf of Mexico, Naples Grande Beach Resort’s more than 23 acres serve as the perfect spot for families to enjoy some last-minute summer sun before school begins. Throughout the rest of the summer, the resort provides children with free daily activities for all-day entertainment.

 

For the kids who love to express their creativity, activities include sidewalk chalk design, sand art classes, t-shirt design, birdhouse painting and glitter art tutorials, all located poolside at the family-friendly Mangrove Pool. Kids seeking adventure and more active events can enjoy watermelon-eating contests, potato sack races, crab races, pool and beach volleyball and resort-wide scavenger hunts.
