The Collier-Seminole State Park is a state park in Naples, Florida. It is known for many things, including its connection to history and the state?s development.

Established around the late 1940s, the Collier-Seminole State Park was originally planned by the wealthy advertising entrepreneur and developer Barron Collier. He chose the current park?s location, which was turned to the state in 1947 and was later made into a state park. It was named after the man and the site?s location.

The 6430-acre park features a lot of things. The most notable of which, however, is the fact that it is located partly in one of the largest mangrove swamps in the world. It is also home to a National Historic Mechanical Engineering Landmark, which is the last surviving Bay City Walking Dredge.
