Плаж Лидо Кий
400 Benjamin Franklin DrGreat beach right off of St. Armand’s Circle, so there’s plenty of restaurant options available
This is about a five minute drive south of the main entrance of Lido Key Beach. This beach area is a lot more picnic-friendly as there is plenty of parking, lots of picnic tables and grills for having cookouts right along the beach. You’ll see jet-skiers and kayakers out in the water having a great time. If you visit during a holiday weekend, expect a lot of traffic and for this area to be full, unless you get there before 10am.

Voted #1 best beach in America back in 2016! Has some of the softest sand you’ll ever experience! Plenty of restaurants and shops along Siesta Key Village to check out on your visit

Locally-owned restaurant that’s served Sarasota for over 50 years. It’s open for breakfast and lunch, and I highly recommend the apricot and blueberry French toast and the ricotta cheese pancakes with lingon berries. Very cute place with a vintage feel! If planning to visit between October and April, plan to arrive earlier in the morning, especially on weekends, to avoid a long wait. Locals love this place as much as seasonal residents and vacationers!
