The Sandbar is our absolute favorite. It's located on Anna Maria Island. Go for lunch. If you want to go for dinner, plan to leave your name and come back an hour or more later to be seated. Get the key lime pie.

Our favorite spot is Coquina Beach. Turquoise waters with an absolutely gorgeous white sand beach. There are restrooms which is a plus. Plenty of free parking in a lot. We setup near the Coquina Cafe so that we have easy access to food and drink. Plus there is a beach bar :-) Don't forget to pack your own cooler with drinks and sandwiches. Make sure the big cooler fits in your trunk before you pack it (it did not fit in our rental car :-\)

Another favorite beach spot. It's a $5 entry into the park and there are a few tolls to get there. If you're in a rental car, you can use the SunPass lanes. We went recently to catch the sunset and it was absolutely amazing! Lot's of shells for the kids to hunt for.
