What makes Siesta Key the best beach in America?
As mentioned in the Tripadvisor website, visitors from all over the world arrive to Siesta Key to feel the white sand, swim in the clear waters and enjoy the sunsets. "The beach has lifeguards on duty, while the relaxing town offers nearby cafés and oyster bars, all within walking or biking distance. Visitors can spot wildlife like manatees and dolphins while on kayaking tours and enjoy beautiful sunsets from the soft sand beach" says a review.
Siesta Key is located on an eight-mile barrier island off the coast of Sarasota. Siesta Beach also benefits from a wealth of beachfront accommodations. According to Tripadvisor, the ideal time to visit is between the months of April and May or September and October. During these windows of time, crowds get smaller, and the weather is great, due to the temperature being more moderate in comparison to the hot summer months.
Why is Siesta Beach different from other beaches?
Siesta Beach not only passes for a Caribbean paradise, but also has a friendly, small-town feel. Despite being so close to a city like Miami, Siesta Key has a different vibe that attracts tourists. The town has two villages and a trolley with free rides to the beach and other near destinations.
Make sure to add Siesta Key to your next summer vacation. You will certainly not regret it.
