Stretching north to Holmes Beach and Anna Maria Island and south to the tip of Lido Key at New Pass, this 10 mile sandy strip of a key has long been home to the rich and famous seeking a luxury retreat. It’s home to manicured lawns, grand resorts, beach cottages, garden parks, neighborhoods with strolling peacocks and secret bayous where manatees find their own refuge.
The annual Stone Crab Seafood Festival is always a gastronomic delight, but the rest of the year there are some of the best restaurants in town sitting bayside and gulfside for you to enjoy the menu as well as ambience.
