One of the major sports passions in Naples is boating so there are lots of ways to enjoy it. In neighborhoods including Port Royal, Aqualane Shores, Royal Harbor and parts of Moorings and Park Shore, residents can moor their boats to private docks in their back yards. There are a number of clubs that provide boat storage and social activities: Hamilton Harbor Yacht Club, Southwinds at Windstar, Naples Sailing and Yacht Club and Naples Yacht Club. In addition, there are a number of boat-launching sites around town, such as ones in Old Naples and Bayview Park.
