Best Shopping in Naples
From the boutiques and galleries of Fifth Avenue South to the luxury wing at Waterside Shops, Mercato's open-air mix and the grocery store that became an attraction, here's where to shop in Naples.
Updated June 2026
Naples has been a destination for the well-dressed and the well-fed for the better part of a century, and the shopping shows it. The short version: Fifth Avenue South and Third Street South downtown for walkable boutiques and galleries, Waterside Shops in Pelican Bay for the marquee luxury names, Mercato for an open-air mix of shops, dining and a movie, and Seed to Table for a grocery store that has become an attraction in its own right.
You can spend a whole vacation here and never see the same storefront twice. Below is how we'd point a first-timer, sorted by the kind of day you want, from a slow downtown stroll to a full afternoon of marble-floored window shopping. We've kept the volatile details, the hours and the tenants, deliberately loose, because Naples retail moves fast; confirm before you make a special trip.

Common questions
Where is the best shopping in Naples, FL?
It depends on the day you want. For walkable downtown boutiques, galleries and cafes, head to Fifth Avenue South or Third Street South, both two blocks from the beach. For the luxury names like Louis Vuitton and Saks, go to Waterside Shops in Pelican Bay. For an open-air mix of shops, dining and a movie, try Mercato.
What is the most upscale shopping in Naples?
Waterside Shops in Pelican Bay is the marquee luxury destination, an open-air center anchored by Saks Fifth Avenue with names like Louis Vuitton, Gucci, Tiffany & Co. and Ferragamo. An ongoing redevelopment has been adding more top-tier tenants, so the lineup keeps expanding. Fifth Avenue South downtown also has high-end boutiques in a more walkable setting.
Is there a farmers market in Naples?
Yes. The flagship is the Third Street South Farmers Market, held every Saturday morning year-round (typically around 7:30 to 11:30) with close to 60 mostly local vendors selling Florida produce, flowers, seafood, baked goods and prepared food. Come early for the best selection, and confirm the current schedule before you go.
What is Seed to Table in Naples?
Seed to Table is Oakes Farms' large two-story specialty grocery market in North Naples, often called the Disney World of grocery stores. Alongside extensive produce, butcher, seafood and bakery departments, it has in-store restaurants, several bars, live music and a supervised kids' play area, so locals treat it as both a shop and a night out. It's free to wander.
Does Naples have an indoor mall?
Yes, Coastland Center on Tamiami Trail North is the traditional enclosed mall, anchored by Macy's, Dillard's and JCPenney, with familiar mall brands, a food court and a cinema. It's the practical pick on a rainy day or when you want department stores and air conditioning rather than an open-air stroll.
When is the best time of year to shop in Naples?
Downtown is liveliest in season, roughly December through April, when Fifth Avenue South and Third Street South are at their busiest and most festive (and most crowded). Summer is quieter and hotter, and some independent shops keep shorter hours. Hours and tenants change often, so confirm before a special trip.
