Sandy beaches, turquoise blue waters, and beautiful weather.

While some small cities and towns exist as tight-knit communities in the shadow of more densely populated areas, many are characterized by their rural landscape and sometimes even remote location. The cities of Anna Maria Island are known for their white sandy beaches, turquoise blue waters, and beautiful weather. This means that the great outdoors are right in your own backyard. 

Our city takes a commitment to the protection of and promote the enjoyment of natural and man-made resources by citizens and visitors alike. Our City provides a set of guidelines for development that improves the economic well-being of the community, promotes Florida Friendly landscaping and green space, protects the lives and property of its residents, and preserves the integrity of its natural environment.

As you travel throughout the city you will see many of the other pocket parks, including Veteran’s Park & Community Garden, Prince Park (A park dedicated to a local celebrity cat), and Grassy Point Wellness Trail (A walking experience through the mangroves of old Florida that promotes mental health wellness, fitness, and education). The proximity of these parks to each other offers the rare opportunity to see many aspects of the city and environment in its natural setting.
