A navigation system, apparatus and method utilizing a processor and a sensor, operatively coupled to the processor to determine a location of the navigation system. A navigation input module is configured to receive destination data specifying a destination and a plurality of point-of-interest (POI) data from a user, where the navigation input module is further configured to receive a POI search area value defining an area of search for the POI data from potential route segments. The processor may utilize the POI search area value to search a plurality of areas along the potential route segments to identify at least some of the plurality of POI data that are in closest proximity to the destination, and wherein the processor may be further configured to cluster the identified POI data for simultaneous presentation on a navigational map.
