Things To Do
St. Armands
St. Armands boasts great restaurants, fun shopping and some of our favorite memories of eating ice cream together :) Spots like Columbia Restaurant have a rich history of Cuban cuisine, Kilwin's Ice Cream sports a renowned selection of ice cream and sweets, Le Macaron French Pastries can give you a different taste of the island, as well as shops mixed in for a great afternoon experience!
Lido Key Beach
Lido Key Beach is a great spot to lay in the sand, easily accessible over the Ringling Causeway and walking distance to St. Armands Circle!
Dry Dock Waterfront Grill
Dry Dock is a gem of a restaurant and our favorite at that! Before Covid and over 10,000 reviews, this place was a quaint spot on the water to find great seafood at an affordable price! The food still stands the test of time, but it is difficult to get a reservation so book while you can!!
Columbia Restaurant
Columbia offers phenomenal Cuban cuisine for lunch and dinner. Beyond the phenomenal food, highly recommend the Cuban Sandwich, "Ybor" and sipping a Tango Mango, there is so much rich history in the restaurant from a family who has owned it for 120 years! The descendants of the original owner still preserve the family legacy after 5 generations!
Crab & Fin Restaurant
Offering the freshest Seafood from all over the country, Crab & Fin is a phenomenal choice for anyone looking for every option of Seafood. They only source from localized sources to each region and never use farm raised fish. Best taste and the most options when it comes to Seafood!
Blu Kouzina
Great taste of Greek food as an option for lunch or if you are swinging by St. Armands/Lido Key Beach. We love experiencing new cuisine and this place has great authentic Greek food!
Speaks Clam Bar
Step back in time at Speaks Clam Bar and experience the charm of early 20th-century New York. Indulge in homemade pasta, specialty seafood, and classic cocktails, all in a unique Prohibition-era ambiance. Great food, even better drinks at a perfect place to sit back and enjoy St. Armands
The John and Mable Ringling Museum of Art
If you like Art and Architecture... The Ringling Museum is a must see! It holds the largest property on the water and has a lot to explore on the grounds. We recommend getting tickets and a tour if you have time to explore the rich history within the museum and the property hotspots; Ca' d'Zan, Museum of Art, Circus Museum, Glass Pavilion, Center for Asian Art, Tea House and Visitors Pavilion!
Longboat Key Golf Course
