Forty miles south of Tampa and just seven miles west of Bradenton, Anna Maria is a paradise island. With the Gulf of Mexico to the west, Tampa Bay and Anna Maria Sound to the east and Sarasota Bay to the south, the seven-mile-long tropical island is a gem, with beautiful white-sand beaches on all sides and a year-round population of just 1800. The island was originally discovered by the Timucan and Caloosan Native Americans and then by Spanish explorers.

Rock shop that makes their own line of jewelry. Rocks, fossils, fossil shark teeth, dinosaur teeth, handmade obsidian knives, rock and roll memorabilia. Kids and adults can make their own necklaces. Come in to see our Megalodon Jaw with 90 real megalodon teeth.
We walked in under a recommendation from an advert a friend had seen. We soon got talking with the owner who had more knowledge on his stones and their provenance than we could imagine as well as being very nice and welcoming. Photos of the people sourcing the stones and fossils on display are hung in each section showing their story. Despite it being a small store there’s so much displayed floor to ceiling that it took well over an hour to look at it all without counting the great conversation we had. Conclusion: - well located - vast selection of stones with more available off site - truly local, very cute and a refreshing atmosphere - get talking - you’ll learn a lot! - couldn’t recommend it more!

Curated with the hip, trendy woman and man in mind, bringing sophistication and surf life to a new level. Striving to buy brands that give back.
A must stop when browsing. Have really nice clothes, bathing suits, some jewelry, stickers, purses, even mens clothing. Really fun.

The Museum is a wonderful little treasure conveniently located on Pine Avenue in the city of Anna Maria, Florida. It has a well planned display of island history and knowledgeable volunteers to help make your visit pleasant. It is free to visit but they welcome donations. The Museum limits visitors to 5 at a time to insure the safety of all our visitors.
I have been visiting the island for the past 6 years and recently purchased a vacation home there after falling in love with "Florida's Best Kept Secret". It wasn't till this year that I had made my first visit to this museum with a friend due to a little shower that had set in. I wish I would have made the visit earlier. For being a small museum it was filled with such rich and interesting history. I am very excited to be returning this month and hoping to snag some of the famous settlers bread that everyone is talking about...along with taking the hubby to see all the interesting history. Next time you are on the island....DON'T walk past this gem....it will make you love the island even more!
