All sand moves along the 10 www.siestakeychamber.com coastline because of wind, storms and ocean currents. The shifting dune is a common phenomenon in sandy areas. If the sand is eroding in one place, then it is building up elsewhere. Prevailing winds roll the surface sand from the bottom of the windward side of the dune over the top and down the leeward side. In time, the entire dune may be rolled for miles. No one can calculate how many eons of time have passed since Siesta Key sand first appeared from fragmented rock, but Siesta Key sand is quite old. We know this not only because of the fine grains but also because other components of the original rock, such as feldspar, mica and other minerals, have almost completely disappeared, leaving only the extremely hard quartz. Siesta Key’s beaches have been rec- ognized for cleanliness, water quality and safety by one of the world’s top experts, Dr. Stephen Leatherman (aka Dr. Beach) of the National Healthy Beaches Campaign, and qualifies as a Blue Wave Beach by the Clean Beaches Council. The Travel Channel ranks Siesta as one of the nation’s top-10 beaches. So now you know why Siesta Key sand is ranked tops in the world. It feels soft and cool to your bare feet, even in the strongest Florida sun, and that means great beach walking. Sculptors love it too, because it packs down firm and smooth, which makes for awesome sand sculptures at the island’s sand sculpting contests. No wonder so many beach lovers of all ages come to Siesta Key whenever they can. We look forward to seeing you at our beach soon!

Siesta Key Beaches SIESTA KEY. Siesta Key is renowned for its breathtaking sunsets, easy-going waves, and gorgeous, crystal white sand. The sand is 99% pure quartz, soft and cool to the feet. Among the many awards it has earned are “The Whitest, Finest Beach Sand in the World” REAL ESTATE CLOSINGS With offices in downtown Sarasota, Osprey and Lakewood Ranch, Florida 941.966.3575 www.sarasotaclosings.com 16 Lauren P. Kohl Attorney at Law www.siestakeychamber.com PHOTO BY SHEILA LEWIS Bring your bike, or rent one. At the southern tip of this beach is Point of Rocks — a lovely snorkeling and diving area rich with coral rock formations as well as colorful and abundant marine life. Crescent Beach visitors staying in nearby resorts, rentals and beach clubs rave (but only to their closest friends) about Siesta Key’s best “non-private private” beach. TURTLE BEACH. Turtle Beach is at the southern tip of Siesta Key and affords a sportier, “family play” beach experience away from the crowds. The beach has picnic areas, a playground, volleyball court and horseshoe pit. There’s also a boat launch, and fishing is permitted in the adjacent Blind Pass Lagoon. This is a great location for paddle-boarding and other water activities. There are restaurants nearby, with shopping and a few local nightspots just a short drive away. Turtle Beach is a narrow beach with a somewhat steeper incline. The sand on the beach tends to carry more shells, making it perfect for beachcombers and shell collectors. Many find petrified shark teeth to take home and treasure — especially after a storm. There’s always something to do at Siesta Beach, and it’s within easy walking distance of the many shops and restaurants in Siesta Village. Campground Information CRESCENT BEACH. Crescent Beach offers the same lush, white sands, azure waters and stunning sunsets, but it is relatively secluded and quiet, because it has only one public access road. Located just south of Siesta Beach, the scene here tends to be more peaceful and private. From sunrise to sunset, there’s nothing quite like the experience of camping on a Florida beach. Turtle Beach Campground, located on Siesta Key, offers one of the few remaining opportunities to park a recreational vehicle or pitch a tent near the Gulf of Mexico and wake VISIT SIESTA KEY, FLORIDA WORLD’S FINEST, WHITEST SAND ™ 17 Visitor Information (The Great International White Sand Challenge, 1987), “The Best Sand Beach in America” (The Travel Channel, 2004) and the best beach in America (Dr. Beach, 2011). Walking along, or swimming and playing in the Gulf of Mexico or merely basking in the tropical sun is enough fun for many folks. Others are drawn by Siesta Beach’s many amenities, which include tennis and volleyball courts, shaded playground and picnic/barbecue areas and convenient concession stands. Shallow water near the shoreline and yearround lifeguard protection make it a great family beach. Beach wheelchairs can be borrowed to help special needs visitors cross the sand. Visitor Information PHOTO BY EMY STEIN Siesta Key Drum Circle up the next morning under the Florida sun. The park features 40 sites for camping, with areas for both RVs and tents. Electricity and cable TV hookups are available. Popular activities include relaxing on the beach, swimming, kayaking, canoeing and browsing through a variety of shops. Some of the finest restaurants on Florida’s Gulf Coast are within walking distance or just a short drive away. Call (941) 349-3839 for reservation information. Siesta Key Drum Circle The drum circle takes place on Siesta Key Beach about an hour (or two) before sundown, every Sunday. Bring a djembe, drum, cowbell or anything that makes noise, and you are part of the ensemble.

It is the home of the African, Latin, Caribbean, 18 dance, rock ‘n’ roll (you name it) rhythms. No rules, just fun, which is why the Siesta Key Drum Circle has grown to one of the largest in the country. Siesta Key Farmers Market Don’t panic, it’s organic!

PHOTO BY BOB STEIN Holiday Fun on Siesta Key VISIT SIESTA KEY, FLORIDA WORLD’S FINEST, WHITEST SAND ™ 21 Fishing Fishing PHOTO BY EMILY REBENNACK Siesta Key is nestled between the Gulf of Mexico, the Intracoastal Waterway, Sarasota Bay and Roberts Bay. Varying water, temperatures and depths form habitats that nurture an amazing variety of fish species. While on a single fishing trip, you may explore estuaries, mangroves and reefs. Note: An estuary is where river water meets sea water. This creates a system of mixed salt and fresh water and encourages productive fish habitats. Many of Florida’s recreational fish and shellfish spend part of their lives in these sheltered areas. Estuaries are considered “cradles of the ocean.” There’s more than one way to catch a fish on Siesta Key: surf casting, spin or fly fishing, shore fishing, wading the grass flats and even bridge fishing. Charter and cruise boat fishing with or without a captain or 22 guide is probably the most popular island sport. You can find every type of water craft and all the fishing gear you need on the Key. Fish Known to be Caught in Our Area INSHORE: Snook, redfish, sea trout, tarpon, bluefish, Spanish mackerel, lady fish, Jack crevalle, pompano, mangrove snapper OFFSHORE: Grouper, red snapper, mangrove snapper, shark, Amberjack, kingfish, permit, dolphin Recreational Fishing Licenses and Permits Before you leave for your fishing trip to Siesta Key, please go to myfwc.com to view regulations. www.siestakeychamber.com PHOTO BY JENNIFER THOMPSON Freshwater: Nonresident annual — $47 Nonresident three-day — $17 Nonresident seven-day — $30 Resident annual — $17 Resident combo annual — $32.50 Saltwater: Nonresident annual — $47 Nonresident three-day — $17 Nonresident seven-day — $30 Resident annual — $17 Resident combo annual — $32.50 Permits/tags: Snook annual — $10 Lobster annual — $5 Tarpon tag annual — $51.50 Recreational licenses and permits for residents and nonresidents are available at county tax collectors’ offices.
