All About Longboat Key

Stretching between the Gulf of Mexico and Sarasota Bay, the barrier island of Longboat Key has attracted its share of sun-seekers, who can be found teeing off at the sweeping gulf-front golf courses or fishing in the mangroves for speckled trout. With Siesta Key to the south and Anna Maria Island to the north, Longboat Key has an upscale feel, with nice restaurants, luxury resorts, and 256 days of annual sunshine. At the northern tip is Beer Can Island, a popular picnic spot that’s prettier than its name might suggest; the untouched, white-sand beach is even accessible on foot at low tide. Paddleboarding, windsurfing, and other on-the-water activities beckon you into the Gulf. And when you’ve finally kicked the sand from your toes and are ready for some culture, you can visit the Ringling Museum of Art in Sarasota, which showcases the circus impresario’s vast collection of classic and modern European and American artworks.
