Longboat Key
A barrier island off the coast of Sarasota and Bradenton, Longboat Key offers well-manicured beauty with emerald fairways and miles of uncrowded beaches.

Overview
This magnificent length of shoreline got its first road courtesy of circus magnate John Ringling in 1925. Originally, it extended only from New Pass at the southernmost tip to the Manatee County line, but Ringling envisioned a beautifully landscaped boulevard that would run the full length of the barrier island.
