All about Siesta Key

The beaches on this barrier island in Sarasota have a luxurious feel, thanks to the pure white sand along its 13 kilometers of pristine coastline. On each of the island’s three main beaches — Siesta Beach, Crescent Beach, and Turtle Beach — the sand is almost exclusively composed of tiny quartz crystals, believed to have originated in the Appalachian Mountains millions of years ago. Digging your toes into it, you’ll notice the soft sand stays cool, even under the hot Florida sun. The beaches here fade into aquamarine surf, and as you watch the sunset over the Gulf of Mexico, you’ll come to appreciate why Siesta Key Beach is such a popular destination.

This beach town has a lively vibe, especially around its main hub, Siesta Key Village. At the core of the village on Ocean Boulevard, you’ll find a variety of local shops and open-air bars and restaurants giving you plenty to do here both on and off the sand.

What are the top things to do in Siesta Key?

Siesta Beach

No trip to Siesta Key would be complete without visiting Siesta Beach, the most popular of the region’s three beaches. The white sand and warm water invite lounging and swimming, while volleyball courts offer a fun activity for groups. Concession stands with food and drink make it possible to spend the entire day at the water’s edge. There’s a longstanding tradition here on Sundays of winding down the week with a drum circle during sunset.

Siesta Village

A short walk from Siesta Beach will get you to Siesta Village, where you’ll find beach-style restaurants and tropical-themed bars. The bright-coloured shops, thatched-roof huts, and towering palm trees give the small district a vibrant atmosphere, while extra-wide sidewalks accommodate window shoppers and cyclists alike.

Point of Rocks

Point of Rocks is a beginner-friendly snorkelling area with shallow, calm water. This rocky sea wall located south of Crescent Beach hosts a myriad of sea life, including gentle manatees in the summertime. High tide is the best time to explore with a snorkel and fins, while low tide offers opportunities to examine tidal pools on land.
