Welcome to Spring in Sarasota

From popular annual events to perfect beach days, Sarasota shines in the springtime.

Sarasota is home to some of the top beaches in the country — in fact, Siesta Beach was just named #1 in the U.S. and #4 in the world as part of Tripadvisor's Travelers' Choice Awards — but we're so much more. This spring, go beyond the beach and find the real must-dos with our Neighborhood Navigator Pass

Spot native wildlife in action and take in the natural beauty of outdoor attractions this time of year. Become inspired by the world-class arts and culture that has us known as Florida's Cultural Coast®. Enjoy dockside or downtown dining before catching a spring training baseball game. Attend one of our annual festivals and events or enjoy open-air shopping at one of our many farmers markets offering in-season produce and artisan goods. 

And finally, find your perfect place to stay, from boutique hotels to luxury resorts to waterfront vacation rentals.
