Prestigious Perico Bay Club Community is just one mile from the white sand beaches of Anna Maria, an Island that flaunts the prettiest seashells in Florida! Anna Maria is also a top US location for rare seashells. Once you arrive at this island-style vacation condo, you’ll agree, the home itself is a rare treasure to discover! Swim in the turquoise Gulf of Mexico where dolphins play daily. Bring your fishing gear to cast a line off the pier, or rent a boat to get out on deep water and fish.

The Shoppes of Paradise Bay Plaza is just about .5 miles away and offers grocery shopping, restaurants, a Starbucks coffee shop, and a Dollar Tree store. The Sarasota/Bradenton airport is a 19-minute drive (10.1 miles) south. Downtown Sarasota and St Armands Circle are about a 30-minute drive south which is a great place for watching a sunset from a rooftop bar and casual and upscale dining and shopping.

Longboat Key, Bradenton Beach, and Anna Maria Island all have fantastic restaurants and beachside activities such as boat rentals, sunset cruises, as well as jet ski, bike, paddleboard, scooter, and kayak rentals. Don't forget a trip to downtown Bradenton which is on the Manatee River and also has bars, dining, and Village of the Arts. The Village of the Arts is an eclectic live-work community made up of colorful historic cottages that house everything from award-winning restaurants to specialty shops, studios, healing arts, bakeries, and Bradenton’s best art galleries.

Proximity to Anna Maria Island is a highlight of the Perico Bay Club Community. There’s a saying here; “when you're on Anna Maria Island, you don’t go to the beach… because on Anna Maria Island, you’re already at the beach.” With Gulf temperatures averaging 84 degrees and 360 days of sunshine per year, the surrounding waters of AMI are known as “the nursery” because of the large number of dolphins that raise their young here.



This area, surrounded by water and interlaced with canals, hosts many amazing sea creatures - among them are Loggerhead Turtles, Manatees, and dolphins. Loggerhead turtles are a protected species. A Turtle Watch group of wonderful folks search the beaches for nests and protect those nests until the eggs hatch (it is illegal for anyone to tamper with the nests). Manatees are also protected here in Florida - they are commonly seen in the summer when they leave their winter-warm waters and migrate south.
