Naples Secrets in the Sun welcomes readers to the booming metropolis of Naples, Florida, through a lively tour of the city’s highlights, history, secrets, local culture, and unforgettable characters. From the City of Naples to Collier County and the Naples/Marco Island metropolitan area, Bianco examines the places, personalities, and regional questions that make Southwest Florida both fascinating and funny.
Readers are taken through memorable discoveries: where Naples’ last nudist colony was located; what the city’s best, but Godawfully expensive, restaurant may be; which local hangout is most popular; how much alcohol the Tamiami Trail dredgers needed to complete the Tamiami Trail through the Everglades; what Immokalee means; whether Marco Polo really discovered Marco Island; and which celebrity “gets down at night” in Naples.
Beyond the city’s history and curiosities, Naples Secrets in the Sun draws from Bianco’s five years as an Uber driver, during which passengers shared stories, observations, personalities, and moments that became part of the book’s comic and cultural texture. The result is a travelogue, local-history collection, and humorous portrait of Southwest Florida told from the front seat of a car by a narrator who knows how to listen, observe, and find comedy in everyday encounters.
The book captures the personality of Naples itself: a city known for sunshine, beauty, wealth, sophistication, athleticism, and down-to-earth residents with great stories to tell. Through researched facts, passenger anecdotes, regional humor, and local mystery, Bianco offers readers an entertaining look at one of Florida’s most intriguing communities. Naples Secrets in the Sun is suited for readers who enjoy Florida humor, Southwest Florida travel writing, local history and escapades, humorous nonfiction, regional storytelling, and character-driven books rooted in real places and real conversations. It is also relevant to members of the news media, reviewers, travel professionals, bookstores, big-box retailers, major pharmacies, and general all readers interested in Naples, Florida, and the broader Southwest Florida experience.
