Adventures All Around
Siesta Key

Explore scenic beaches, charming shops, delicious dining, thrilling watersports, breathtaking sunsets, and lively nightlife—everything you need for unforgettable moments.

 

Siesta Key Beach

Enjoy a private entrance to the consistently ranked #1 beach in the U.S. (and top in the world by travelers)—powdery white crystal quartz sand that stays cool underfoot, calm, clear Gulf waters perfect for swimming, wading, or just relaxing, and epic sunsets.

North and South Villages

The North Village is the hub with more options and energy, while the South Village is the laid-back, practical spot better for relaxed stays, with quick access and fewer tourists. Many visitors bounce between both via the free Siesta Key Breeze trolley, which loops the island daily.

Kayak The Hidden Mangroves

Self guided or fully guided tours around 35 acres of mangroves covered islands. Dolphins & Manatees seen every day!  Paddle through hidden mangrove tunnels, guided clear kayak tours (LED night versions available) feel like exploring a secret world.

Dolphin Boat Tours

Tour calm and beautiful waterways while spotting dolphin, manatees and the endless amount of scenery that makes Siesta Key the #1 beach in the USA. Hop off at a sandbar to explore, swim and look for shells and sand dollars. 

Free Siesta Key Trolley

Your best friend—no parking hassles! It stops right in front of our resort and loops the island, hitting beaches, the Villages, and more. Runs daily, free (tips appreciated), and super convenient from our spot.

Go Fish

Whether fishing from a beach, boat, bridge, drift or pier, Siesta Key provides unlimited opportunities for anglers of any age or skill level, with plenty of species to be found. Jack, Snook and Tarpon abound in the brackish waters where freshwater meets saltwater, while area saltwater provides a home to a variety of fish including Drum, Grouper, Mackerel, Snapper, Trout and many other saltwater species.
