Wellness Guide To Naples + Bonita Springs, Florida

My parents have a condo in Bonita Springs that they hibernate to every winter, so I’ve spent a lot of time in Bonita Springs… as well as Naples, as it’s only 20 minutes away! The best thing to do in any coastal Florida town is enjoy the beach, + Naples + Bonita is no exception to that. But, for days where you want to adventure outside of the beach — I got you covered!
