After arriving and checking into your hotel, you’ll probably want to explore your surroundings. If you’re excited to scope out the beaches, spend a relaxing day by the water at Siesta Key Beach or Lido Beach. Experience the area’s live music and shopping, and make time for local attractions like Turtle Beach and Nokomis Beach. You can also pay a visit to Oscar Scherer State Park or Nancy’s Consignments for more to see and do.
