Siesta Key - #1 Beach in America

Siesta Key Beach is central Sarasota, Florida’s gateway to the sparkling waters of the Gulf of Mexico. On May 27, 2011 Dr. Beach named Siesta Key Beach the #1 Beach in the United States for 2011. Before this, Siesta Key was recognized as having the whitest and finest sand in the world.

The East side of Siesta Key is best accessed by boat rental. Here, you can explore the mangrove forests that dot the area, drop a line for snook or pompano, and cruise Sarasota’s dockside restaurants and pubs. The island’s west side is where you can find Siesta Key’s glorious white sand beaches.

Unlike the majority of beaches that are made up mostly of coral, Siesta Beach’s sand in 99% quartz. Even on the hottest Florida days, the sand is so reflective that it feels cool under your toes.

The shallow water near the shoreline, as well as year round life guard protection, makes this the not only, the best beach to bring your family to, but also the safest.

The beach offers amenities such as

• Picnic tables
• Beach volleyball courts
• Playground equipment
• Rest rooms
• Picnic tables
• A soccer field
• 20 Station fitness trail
• Tennis Courts

Siesta Key is the perfect destination for all travelers; you can take your loved one for an early morning walk, dipping your toes in the surf, or build sand castles with your family.
