Rain days are the days with at least 1 mm of rain, as a weather station counts them.
Weather read at Old Naples, by the pier: ten years of ERA5 and ERA5-Land reanalysis, through Open-Meteo's open data.
A busy month is a crowded one, not a bad one — usually it is crowded because the weather is good. It is flagged rather than scored down, and crowds alone never make a month “avoid”: that is reserved for weather worth skipping.
How busy it gets
Then and now
Naples's March days now average 27.1°C, 2.4°C warmer than in 1981–1990. 8 of 12 months are clearly warmer.

Getting there
Fly into Fort Myers (RSW), then drive. The flights under Where to book are to Fort Myers.
The drive from each airport is the road's, from openrouteservice.org by HeiGIT: typical, not a schedule.
