Sightseeing
Take a stroll here at sunset & enjoy the beautiful ambiance as you walk right next to the bayfront. Stop by O'Leary's for a drink - you may even catch some live music while you're there!
If you want some extra relaxation, we highly recommend the free yoga stretching offered by a local yogi (tips welcomed). These basic-level yoga events happen every Tuesday at sunset & attract a large number of locals. Find updated information on their Facebook page - Yoga By The Bay with Erin.

This is our favorite local beach. In our opinion, it's just as beautiful as Siesta Key but with less crowds!
Insider tip: We always try to park on the street parking rather than in the parking lot. You get fewer crowds away from the parking lot!

We've tested many Mexican restaurants around Sarasota & this is our #1. Our go-to dish is the enchilada smothered in white queso! But everything on the menu is great here.
