| Siesta Key |
| You can reach Siesta Key by two bridges that cross the Intracostal
Waterway from Sarasota. Ocean Boulevard is where you’ll find
the action and the beaches. The sands come from battered quartz rocks
– making them the whitest to be found and some of the most popular. |
| Casey Key |
| To find this hidden gem, turn off Route 41 at Blackburn Point (you
won’t see any signs pointing the way!). Winding along the island
you’ll snake past the many mansions and landscaped yards –
following the road will bring you to Nokomis Beach and then to the
south end bridge back to the mainland. |
