What Things Can We Do On

Siesta Key island in Florida?

Well before we share some

things with you this needs to be share with you.

StephenP. Leatherman aka “Dr. Beach”, a professor of

environmental studies at Florida International

University, recently named Siesta Key America’s Best

Beach!

Siesta Key, is just a few miles away

from Sarasota and is a barrier island that iseight miles long. Many

consider it to be ‘paradise’ us included, with its abundance of

beautiful beaches, tropical birds, and year-round

sunshine.

The warm waters from the Gulf of Mexico ensure that

this little island stays warmer than inland

Sarasota. But what does Siesta Key have to offer

when the sun goes down?Well Here Is What Vanessa & I Suggest

Next head to nearby Siesta Key Village, which is a charming,

beachy village filled with restaurants, bars, ice cream

parlors and shops. After touring the "Village" let's go to a favorite spot after enjoying

the beach and it is the Blu Que Island Grill

Where each day they have a special and all you can eat. Obviously this is for the hardy eater. The open-air dining and

great music entertainment daily

is a favorite with the locals, as well as

the vacationers.

Another option to dine is a Siesta Key institution – Siesta Key Oyster Bar (or as locals affectionately call it, SKOB).

We always have frozen tropical drinks,

Grouper Bites, Oysters on the Half-Shell and Keith's Seafood Tacos. The Key

Lime Pie is also good here. SKOB is a great place to come at night, as there’s

live music and a really fun, casual, beachy vibe. Sitting out on the deck offers great

people-watching, as well.

Most of the action going on after dark on Siesta Key will be found in Siesta Village, where there is a handful of bars and pubs, all in keeping with the

island’s tropical flavour.

Another in ‘The Village’ of Siesta

Key is The Beach Club, which is a trendy bar

offering a fun retreat.

Live bands are often featured, as well as cocktails and

outdoor seating that keep locals and tourists coming

back night after night.

The bar also has many televisions to keep sports fans up-to-date on the latest scores! It is a popular spot for dancing the night away, to a wide array

of different music styles.

Siesta Key tends to offer a quieter and more relaxed night out, so those requiring a little more liveliness and variety to their evenings would benefit

from taking the short trip over into Sarasota. Sarasota offers a more city-based night out, with an abundance of night clubs,

bars and social hot spots.
