My non-birding family are considering booking a last minute holiday to Naples, Florida for next week (19th -26th December 2011).
Therefore, I was wondering what the birdwatching is like in the area, I have heard it is very good. I have never bird watched in North America so most species that I see will be new for me.
Does anyone have any information regarding good sites around the city? We are likely to be staying at La Playa resort so I would be looking for sites close to there (Ideally walking distance). Are there any sites accessible by public transport.
Alternatively, would anyone recommend a specific boat trip company or other excursion or guide that I should use? I am not really looking to pay the money to hire a private guide as this is likely to be too expensive.
I don't intend to birdwatch the whole time but may do a few trips.
Does anyone have any other information that may be helpful?
Thanks in advance,
Oliver
