Having fun in Sarasota doesn’t require a lot of money. In fact, many things to see and enjoy in Sarasota are absolutely free. With 35 miles of beautiful beaches and six barrier islands, near-perfect weather and a variety of fairs, concerts, arts and cultural events, Sarasota offers a fun and inexpensive getaway. I'm going to share just a few of those with you!1. Life's a Beach! Put on your bathing suit, grab your towel and head to one of Sarasota’s 35 miles of beautiful beaches, all open to the public, and perfect to body surf, play in the sand, collect seashells and bask in the sun. As you contemplate the crashing waves, the magnificent blue green Gulf provides you with a clearer mind, lighter heart and stronger spirit.
2. Follow a different drum. Siesta Key Drum Circle. Watch the magnificent sunset and listen to the drummers on Siesta Key Public Beach Sunday evenings just before sunset, and going till the wee hours of the morn... located just south of the main pavilion between lifeguard stands 3 and 4 on Siesta Public Beach. This is not a commercial event but local phenomenon that began sponteneously and now has a life of its own. Park in the public lot, and follow your ears.
