Freedom Park

Have you had the opportunity to visit Freedom Park in Naples? The park is located off Golden Gate Parkway, between Airport Pulling Road and Goodlette-Frank Road in Naples. Freedom Park is designed as a water quality park to capture water and reduce harmful pollutants before the water enters into Naples Bay. The park is a hidden gem in the city of Naples, where residents, visitors and children can enjoy.



The park has a raised boardwalk through the wetlands and has a number of shade structures to sit under and enjoy the beauty and tranquility of Freedom Park. To the West side of the park you will see the treatment ponds and marshes that will purify the water and remove the pollutants, before the water flows back naturally into Naples Bay.

The Education building contains information on Freedom Park programs, reference materials, and a Fair Trade Gift Shop. Park hours are 8am-Dusk year round. The Education building is open 8am-5pm, Tuesday-Saturday, and closed on major holidays. For more information on Freedom Park, please call 239-252-4060 or 239-252-4024.

Freedom Park is a wonderful partnership between the Public and Private Sectors.

Enjoy Southwest Florida,
