Sarasota is a Gulf Coast city in Florida, situated just south of the more well-known city of Tampa. From Coquina Beach to Siesta Beach to Venice Municipal Beach and Lido Beach, Sarasota boasts some of the finest beaches in all of Florida. Siesta Beach is definitely the blue-ribbon winner of the bunch, featuring magnificent sand that is 99% pure quartz. The beach was ranked No. 1 in 2011 on Dr. Beach’s annual list of America’s Best Beaches. Visitors will enjoy warm Gulf breezes, pristine white-sands, and emerald-hued waters.
