You can always find so much to do on Anna Maria Island, located on the Gulf Coast of Florida with easy access from Tampa and Sarasota Airports. A seven mile long and one mile wide stretch of white sand beach, with an average annual temperature of over 80 degrees, it truly is a paradise! Anna Maria Island is broken up into 3 Cities - Bradenton Beach, Holmes Beach and Anna Maria, and can be toured by our free Trolly! Start the day out enjoying breakfast at Ginny & Jane E's at the old IGA , or take it away and enjoy it on the white sugar sand beach! A wonderful selection of shops can be visited from one end of Anna Maria Island to the other, or slip over the bridge to Long Boat Key and St. Armands Circle for the afternoon. Evenings can be satisfied with a wonderful dinner at Beach Bistro or one of the many Award Winning restaurants. Enjoy a live performance at Island Players, or live music, dinner, and sunsets at The Beach House or Sandbar Restaurants.
