Things To Do

The John and Mable Ringling Museum of Art

This is one of our favorite museums, so much to see and great for the whole family! Recommend planning on having lunch before or after- the museum is wonderful, the cafe not as much.

St. Armands Circle

Boutique shops, local restaurants and cafes, lovely to walk around.

Sarasota Jungle Gardens

Perfect place to take the kids! Feed the free roaming animals, roam the gardens, or catch a show.

Myakka Canopy Walkway and Observation Tower

If you’re looking to be outdoors, this trail and lookout offers gorgeous views and some jaw-dropping walkways.

Siesta Key Aqua Adventures

Boat rentals, tours, banana boat, kayak tours!

Lido beach

Everyone needs a beach day!
