Anna Maria Island's Absolute Essentials

This collection spans the Florida Gulf Coast from the quiet shores of Anna Maria Island to the cultural hubs of Sarasota and Bradenton. Highlights include the 15-acre Marie Selby Botanical Gardens, known for its extensive epiphyte collection, and the Mote Marine Aquarium’s research-focused exhibits. Historical context is provided by the De Soto National Memorial, marking the 1539 landing of Spanish explorers, while the 1.5-mile Bradenton Riverwalk and the Sunshine Skyway Bridge offer distinct architectural and recreational perspectives of the Tampa Bay estuary.
