Thanks, guys!
Naples is a waterside gem of SW FL on the Gulf of Mexico. South of Naples is pretty much Everglades but also Marco Island and Everglades City. On I-75 to the north is Fort Myers ~45 min by car, Port Charlotte ~1 h, Sarasota ~1 h 45 min, Tampa / St. Petersburg ~2 h. Hop on I-4 connecting I-75 and I-95 and in ~3 h is Orlando, ~5.5 h to Jacksonville.
South on I-75 (aka Alligator Alley, formally south but in reality ~ straight east) is Ft. Lauderdale ~1.5 h, Miami ~1 h 45 min.
A bit south of Miami is Homestead, ~2 hours from us. Route 41 is scenic and runs through Everglades ((((((midway there is an awesome free place to see gators, fish, birds, reptiles up close and personal but still in the wild - Oasis Visitor Center - Big Cypress National Preserve http://www.nps.gov/bicy/planyourvisit/oasis-visitor-center.htm ))))). It's slower and shorter. I-75 Alligator Alley is not so scenic but longer and faster. So ~ the same time.

We are open to friendly "preview" visits by appointment for now. Free of charge, of course (not that there is that much to see yet anyway), until we open to public at large.
We are always happy to see fellow fish enthusiasts but keep in mind I am often quite busy. As you can imagine I have lots on my plate and I am pretty much alone. We've started our little venture 4 years ago and we need to open soon, says my worn-out conscience and my bread-winning wife
The address is both business and residence. We live here too, hence, please be considerate. No drive-by is possible anyway. The dead-end road is small, private, and we are the last property behind a gate:
