Review:
Coquina Bayside Park is a charming beachfront park at Anna Maria Island's southern end, located approximately a mile south of the city's downtown district. The park, which is open daily between sunrise and midnight, is the city's best spot for boat launching, offering launch spots for non-motorized and motorized watercraft, canoes, and kayaks. Visitors can fish at the park during the day and utilize the park's public fish cleaning tables after coming ashore with their catches. Day-use picnic sites are also offered, along with public restrooms and water fountains. Water and sand conditions are lovely throughout the summer months, making for great swimming and sunbathing experiences. Two large picnic pavilions are available for special event rental throughout the year, offering barbecue grills and seating for up to 56.
