After dusting off the sand, stroll the charming streets of St. Armand's Circle in Lido Key. Designed by John Ringling, yes the circus Ringling, this quirky area is known for the numerous Italian baroque statues dotted amongst an interesting mix of shops and restaurants. You'll find boutiques here you won't see anywhere else in the USA.
Sarasota’s rich performing arts scene makes it so much more than a
typical beach community and it absolutely rivals bigger U.S. cities.
Home to dozens of performing arts venues including opera, theatre,
ballet, museums…..the list goes on. And the best bit, it’s there for
locals and visitors alike, so worth seeing ‘what’s on’ whilst planning
your holiday.
