Anna Maria Island Florida
Vacation
Located on Florida's Renowned West Coast, Seven-mile long Anna Maria Island is situated just south of Tampa Bay and is surrounded by the Gulf of Mexico on its western shore and Sarasota Bay and Anna Maria Bay on its eastern shores. It is the northernmost of a string of barrier islands that extend in a southerly direction to the Florida Keys. The island's three cities (Anna Maria at the northern end, Holmes Beach in the middle and Bradenton Beach at the southern end) are easily accessed by three draw bridges -- one for Longboat key to the south and two from the mainland which lie off the Island's eastern shore across from Sarasota Bay and the Intercostals Waterway. The northernmost entry to the island is from Bradenton via SR 64 -- a cross-Florida link which runs almost to the state's Atlantic coast. With its temperate year-round weather, Anna Maria island has truly become "My Island In The Sun" for not only visitors but year-round residents. They have willingly surrendered their days to being entranced by the warm lapping waters and sugar soft sandy beaches.
