NEVER A DULL MOMENT ON ANNA MARIA ISLAND
Where do we even start? The options are endless on Anna Maria Island.
Right outside the gated community, there is the Freedom Boat Club and Marina. You can dock your personal or rented boat at the marina and eat at the brand new Floriday’s Woodfire Bar & Grill. Less than a mile to the east is the famous Robinson Preserve with miles of walking, biking, kayaking, and outstanding bird watching. A short bike ride away, you arrive on Anna Maria Island with seven miles of world-class beaches with some having sand that reminds you of powdered sugar. Anna Maria Island does not allow any chain restaurants, so you get to taste the local flare of seafood, smoked meats, handmade ice cream, and many more varieties of food that will have your taste buds saying ‘thank you.’ After your belly is happy, enjoy sitting at one of the many beach side bars and watch the sunset into the ocean as you think about how life is good, and you deserve this.
We’ve traveled worldwide, and there is a reason we chose to purchase at One Particular Harbor. Come see for yourself!
