There’s no finer place to be than in Sarasota during the July 4th weekend! Here’s a list of 10 fun-filled water loving things to do and the perfect places and properties for your utmost enjoyment:

1. Enjoy the Power boats on the Bay and Sunday’s race during the 2009 Suncoast Grand Prix Festival.
2. Perfect time to catch Tarpon and Redfish! Only feet from our area’s only natural reef, our inspiring Gulf front listing at 7660 Sanderling Club is better known as “Tarpon Point”.
   
   
3. Take your raft and goggles to your favorite beach in the area…Gulf temperatures will be a perfect 86* degrees.
4. Lunch on Longboat Key at one of the many waterfront restaurants.
5. Boating is one of our all-time favorite pastimes. The ultimate boaters dream home is, of course, Snook Inn where” it’s all about the water” featuring nearly 500’ of waterfrontage and the area’s only two-vessel deepwater boathouse.
   
   
6. Parasail over the Gulf.
7. Any student can bring their report card and show an A in Science and get FREE admission to Mote Marine Aquarium (located between Lido and Longboat Keys).
8. Beach walk, ice cream and shopping extravaganza on Lido Beach and St. Armand’s Circle.
9. Music and patriotic outfit contest at the bayfront Tropical 4th of July celebration on the grounds of Marie Selby Botanical Gardens.
10. OOOOOhhh…AAAAAAAAAAAH at the Bayfront Fireworks display near Island Park. Perfect views from the Bayfront terrace on our Bird Key Mediterranean.
