We stopped here after lunch at the Old Salty Dog. Very few visitors at about 1 pm despite this being high tourist season. The tide was out as you can see from my photos. Great views of downtown Sarasota and the Ringling bridge. They also have a small playground for up to 12 year olds.

Reviewed By Camper73129 - Anna Maria Island, United States
A great destination for learning about Fla. History. The boardwalk goes to the bay where there is a lookout point to Anna Maria Island. The beauty and serenity of this place is profound. It is easy to understand why this would have been chosen as a sacred burial ground for the First Floridians. The tower is a special treat for a wider view of the mangrove and coastal waters. The trails and signage are well maintained. This is a free and easy hidden gem. I highly recommend it!
