The island of Longboat Key lies between the Gulf and Sarasota
Bay and is claimed
by both Manatee and
Sarasota counties.
Twelve miles of
white sand beaches
have helped to make
this a luxury resort
community.
Longboat Key is an
elegant and scenic
environment offering
a rare combination
of breathtaking
beaches and cultural
activities with a
relaxed and elegant
lifestyle.
The Longboat Key Center for the Arts, with a permanent
collection and
changing exhibits of
juried and
invitational shows,
hosts art classes,
workshops, and
cultural events here
on
Longboat Key. Sarasota’s many cultural centers are only minutes
away over the south
bridge, including
Van Wezel Performing
Arts Center, Asolo
Theater, Ringling
Museum, Sarasota
Ballet and Opera,
and several other
live theaters.
You’ll find terrific
shopping on
Longboat Key, and
nearby locales: St.
Armands Key.
Anna Maria Island
and Bradenton, over
the north bridge,
both also offer a
variety of shopping,
theater, and
cultural
experiences.
Whether you like to
spend your time
shelling, biking,
shopping, fishing,
golfing, or dining,
opportunities for
these activities are
boundless on
Longboat Key,
Lido Key,
and
St. Armands Key.
Well known as
private island
paradises, there are
accommodations here
to suit everyone,
from deluxe suites
in plush resorts and
condominiums to
beachfront cottages
and modest hotel
rooms. And perhaps
the resort that
embodies the best of
the area above all
others is the
Longboat Key Club
and Resort.
