Who said we needed a passport for nice beaches? AD

Three words: Anna Maria Island (AMI). Just a 2-hour non stop flight from DC, this beautiful beach destination on Florida’s Gulf Coast is that destination that needs to be on your list for this year.

Many of you don’t know this, but I’m the child of two Floridians 🤭 and I was shocked I hadn’t heard of this charming place before. (Especially because of all the summers I spent in the sunshine state.)

Some things to know ⬇️

1. The closest airport is SRQ, the Sarasota Bradenton Airport @fly.srq . AMI is about a 30 -minute drive depending on traffic.

2. Golf carts are a common mode of transportation around the island. Rent yours from @zoomnational

3. AMI is primarily a vacation rental destination- we stayed at Mello on the beach, and it was adorable! @staymelloami

4. The water in the summer is literally bath water temperature and blue. I didn’t want to leave.

5. AMI is definitely a relaxed vibe. So if you’re looking to visit cute shops, eat gulf oysters the size of your head, and get your toes in the sand this is the place for you. Oh and you have to go dolphin watching with @amidolphintours_

Be on the lookout for the video later this week!

Have you been to Anna Maria Island before?
