This collection spans the Gulf Coast from the quartz-rich shores of Siesta Key to the nature preserves of Fort De Soto Park.

Further north, Manatee County Beach provides full public facilities on Anna Maria Island. The list also includes the historical grounds of Fort De Soto and the manatee-frequented waters of Apollo Beach.
