Visit Sarasota County Beach Named Best of the Best in Florida by Tripadvisor Travelers’ Choice Awards

Known for its white quartz sand beaches, Siesta Key Beach, located in Sarasota County, was once again recognized as the best beach in Florida by Tripadvisor Travelers’ Choice Awards Best of the Best. It was also recognized as the second-best beach in the United States and ranked in the top 10 for best in the world.

“We are honored Siesta Key Beach is once again recognized on Tripadvisor’s Travelers’ Choice Award list,” said Erin Duggan, President and CEO of Visit Sarasota County. “With the powdery soft sand along crystal blue waters, we can’t wait for visitors, both new and returning, to experience the best beach in Florida and all that Sarasota County has to offer.”

The Travelers’ Choice Awards Best of the Best title celebrates the highest level of excellence in travel. It’s awarded to those who receive a high volume of above-and-beyond reviews and opinions from the Tripadvisor community over a 12-month period. Out of their 8 million listings, fewer than 1% achieve this milestone.
