The Beach
Your nearest beach is a pleasant 15-minute walk on Ocean Blvd through the shopping and dining of the village. We like to walk to breakfast in the village then head straight to the beach at Access 7 or Sunset Pier. Leaving the beach, we stop off for lunch, dinner or happy hour. The beaches here are the widest, have panoramic views of the gulf to the North-West-and-South, and are the top spot in North America for sunsets. You can swim or wade to Sand Dollar Island, a naturally occurring white sand cay popular with dolphin sand-dollars and “occasionally” manatee and giant-conch. The water is shallow clear and calm with white quartz-sand tide-pools perfect for sleeping drinking or playing.
*Special note - Siesta Key Access 4 is just 100 feet from the house and, although not a swimming spot, it delivers the best views on the island, and is an amazing pick for morning coffee, evening drinks, and sunsets on the water. It's also pet friendly, boasts world class fishing, and you could get picked up here by a hired tour boat.
