Naples Island Area of Long Beach California

Thank you for visiting Southern Shores Website and we hope you enjoy the information about Long Beach, second largest city in Los Angeles County and its many neighborhoods.

One of Long Beach's most unique neighborhoods with an Old World Charm feeling is the Naples community. This area is filled with lovely homes with well tended gardens and a delightful ambience created by three separate islands, all with canals running into the bay. Streets all end with either 'Walk' or 'Drive' and the whole feel of Naples is based on Old Italy. A place of honor in the Naples neighborhood are the gondoliers who can be found gliding through the canals with passengers enjoying the smooth ride and the spirit of romance.

Naples has its own elementary school, part of the Long Beach Unified School District. Since 1925, Naples Elementary has borne witness to thousands of children beginning their educational journey.

A proud tradition since 1946 is the Naples Christmas Boat Parade. All local boat owners are invited to take part in the parade by decorating their boats and gliding through the Naples' canals. The bay is filled with lighted trees and elaborately decorated homes are found throughout the neighborhood.

Condos in this beautiful neighborhood start in the high $300,000s. Single family homes range from the low $800,000s for a 1400 square foot home, with the average price being around $1,500,000 to $4,000,000 for spacious, elegantly remodeled properties with spectacular water views. Spanish Revival and Italian Renaissance are very popular architectural styles found in the Naples area. Lots sizes average 30 feet by 80 feet.

Close by is the popular beachy Belmont Shore, filled with shopping, restaurants, clubs, a very lively neighborhood. The marina is just minutes away and a great place to launch a motor boat, take a rowing lesson, or just enjoy the scenery. Shopping is just over the Naples Bridge and freeway access is a mere five minutes away. What an ideal Sunny Southern California location!!
