Longboat Key is a quiet, lushly landscaped barrier island with no neon or fast food restaurants. It is considered to be one of the Gulf Coast's most beautiful and desirable communities. Along with the usual beach activities such as para sailing, boating, fishing, jet skiing, sailing, etc., the area offers varied activities for days off from the beach including: bike rentals, Mote Aquarium (one of our favorites); high end shopping at charming St. Armand's Circle, the Pelican Sanctuary; the Ringling Museum of Art, the Asolo Theater, and many other cultural venues in nearby Sarasota. For those wanting to stay fit, a paved walking/biking/ jogging path set back from the road runs the length of Longboat Key, passing in front of our complex. Nearby there are also free, beautifully maintained public tennis courts overlooking the Bay. The
Central Gulf Coast area is also known for its many golf courses, with an estimated 79 courses in the vicinity.
