Located on the Gulf of Mexico to the south of Naples, Marco Island is the largest and only developed land of the Ten Thousand Islands. At the southern tip of Florida’s Paradise Coast, Marco Island is famous for its stunning beaches, marvelous shelling, spectacular bird and wildlife watching, and numerous water activities including kayaking, canoeing, fishing, and boating. Marco Island is surrounded by the Gulf of Mexico on one side and flanked by nearly 100 miles of islands, bays, and estuaries that will never be developed on the other side, providing the perfect setting for activities mixed with relaxation. This Gulf Coast retreat with unique island ambiance also offers luxury resorts, world-class dining, specialty shops, unspoiled parks, and easy access to the outstanding amenities in Naples. Marco Island's tropical climate and proximity to the Gulf are huge lures and its real estate opportunities are diverse. Whether you are looking for a vacation home or a permanent residence, Marco Island has a property for you. Luxury beachfront homes and condominiums, affordable single-family homes, maintenance-free villas, condos with boat slips, gated communities and more are available on this distinctive island. Marco Island is a barrier island along the Gulf Coast, located less than 30 minutes south of Naples. Home to over 15,000 residents, the community is the largest and most developed of Florida’s Ten Thousand Islands, a chain of islands and mangrove islets lining the Southwest Florida coast. Marco Island’s picture-perfect tropical setting, sun-kissed white sand beaches, amazing seafood restaurants, and laid-back atmosphere allows for an exceptional quality of life. The island’s character seamlessly transitions between upscale resort and idyllic Old Florida fishing village, which makes it a unique place to call home.
