Are you looking for some dining alternatives while on your Anna Maria Island vacation? Take a couple of evenings (or afternoons) and venture down to Longboat Key. There are some awesome Longboat Key restaurants to enjoy. Most have the luck of boasting beautiful water views and a special ambiance; others offer a casual feel where you can come straight from the beach. Here are five of the most popular ones:
Whether you are new to the island or are a regular visitor, Mote Marine and Aquarium (a.k.a. ‘the Mote’) is definitely a must-see at some point during your vacation. It is a fun place to take the family (or friends) for a day of exploring and getting up close and personal with the sea life that inhabits the area waters as well as bodies of water around the world.
If you drive by any of the Anna Maria Island boat ramps or one of the local marinas, one thing you are sure to see is people heading out to fish at almost any time of day. Anna Maria Island fishing is one of the most popular activities with vacationers and locals alike.
Whether casting their lines off one of the three piers, setting up their equipment along the shoreline, or heading out into the water by boat, there is nothing like feeling that pull on the line and knowing that there is something on the other end just waiting for you to reel it in.
Everyone wants to learn how to stand up paddleboard as they watch others out in the water. In reality, we love to watch them go in the water. When they don’t and seem to glide through the water, we think to ourselves that it must be fairly easy to do – that is, until we actually get up on one. Suddenly, we’re the ones losing our balance and going in the water…not once, not twice, but over and over again.
As school winds down and summer is just around the corner, families are making their plans for their summer vacation — typically to the beach. Whether you go to the same place every year or venture to a new coastal area each year, it is always great to get summer vacation tips from the people there – the “locals.”

How it works…leave your pet in the comfort of your own home or rental unit; allowing for minimal interruption of their daily routines.
A Good Sit (One visit per day)
For the dog that is able to come and go through a doggy door. This dog is ok with alone time; needs minimal attention and will have one quick visit a day for fresh food, water and a little love. $20/Day
Happy dog (Two visits per day)
For the dog who needs a little more exercise and a chance to get out of the house. A couple of visits a day is perfect for this dog. There will be a walk around the neighborhood with a couple of potty breaks. $40/Day
Lucky dog (Three visits per day)
For the dog whose attention span is a little shorter… Perhaps a younger dog with lots of energy. The happy dog will have three visits and more adventurous walks to burn energy and with your permission, some basic obedience training. $60/Day
Additional services
