The Island offers a Free Trolley Service! Jump on the trolley to go to the beach, restaurant, have a drink, see a local museum, or to go to the grocery store. You can even take your fishing pole with you to one of the piers on the Island to fish.
There is also a trolley service from Coquina Beach to Sarasota. It is .75 each way. Route can be found here. There are also buses run by the Sarasota County Area Transit and the Manatee County Area Transit.
Anna Maria Island has the feel of a fishing village. There are no skyscrapers here! Ride your bike or rent one, walk around the Island, take the trolley, or of course you can drive your own car or rental.
It's your vacation! You have your choice of activities on or near the Island, while enjoying our condo. There are so many activities, such as golf, rent a pontoon boat, sailboat or kayak, parasailing, shell-hunting, sunbathing, museums, miniature golf, scuba dive, bird watching, historical attractions, live theatre, bike and walking trails, snokeling, or fishing, just to name a few. Of course, you will want to spend time at the beach, just relaxing, which is across the street from our condo.
We are surrounded by water with the Gulf of Mexico, Tampa Bay, Anna Maria Sound and Sarasota Bay. There are three bridges onto the Island.
We are 15 miles to Sarasota/Bradenton International Airport. St. Petersburg/Clearwater Airport is 37 miles and Tampa International Airport is 45 miles.
There are too many restaurants on the Island to name, but there are plenty!
There are several public piers on Anna Maria Island.
