We always do the walk here on our trips to Anna Maria Island. This year we spotted dolphins, rays and a manatee. Plenty of birdlife - including a Skipper nesting site. More

What can I say, I LOVE Anna Maria Island. We walk to Bean Point and it's so natural. The homes are set pretty far back. We looked for shells, saw lots of different birds and met some fantastic people. More

This little stretch of beach is quiet and uncrowded. Water is that beautiful green to blue we see in Mexico and the Caribbean. Hard to find the access walks but well worth it. More
