Your Inside Guide to: Sarasota/Siesta Key
Explore Anna Maria Island
Anna Maria Island, which extends seven miles from southern Tampa Bay to Longboat Key, hosts three small cities, each with a distinctive flavor — Anna Maria to the north, Holmes Beach at the center and Bradenton Beach to the south. You'll find quaint beachside inns and pastel-colored cottages on this Old Florida slice of sand. Visitors can rent bicycles to explore historic buildings, waterfront parks and picturesque beaches. Shop for novelties and dine at eclectic restaurants on Historic Bridge Street. This is also a Mecca for fishing, sailing or just hanging out with laid-back, friendly locals. Head onto the mainland in Manatee County for more adventures like top-rated golf courses, Historic Cortez Fishing Village and quirky art galleries at Village of the Arts in Bradenton.More Activities
