Are you planning a trip to Florida this spring? Discover a hidden gem at Anna Maria Island. The Island, just seven miles long, has something for everyone while avoiding the Spring Break crowds at other destinations. And don’t worry. You will find plenty of activities to enjoy with a stay in our little island paradise. 

 

Beaches!

A Spring Break getaway always involves spending time on our beautiful beaches. Splash in the waves or sit in the sand. There are several spectacular beaches on the Island. Pick a spot and set up beach chairs. Better yet, have CabanUp set it up for you. 

 

Swim with Horses

Go horseback riding on the beach with C Ponies, which includes a beach ride where the horses take you for a swim. The C Ponies tours are fabulous activities for any level of riding experience. 

 

Fishing

The fishing off AMI is incredible. Book a two-hour family trip with AMI Charters. The company also offers longer fishing excursions, sunset cruises, and four-hour fun runs. An experienced crew puts you on the fish and helps you reel in a winner.

 

Paddling

Paddle some flat water with Beach Bums AMI, which offers a scenic kayak tour along the mangroves and into Anna Maria Sound. Paddlers can see plenty of wildlife, including dolphins and sometimes a manatee.

 

The 36th Springfest, a fine arts and crafts festival, is set March 16-17 at the City Hall Field in Holmes Beach. This festival is a combination of people, education, entertainment, and food.
