Sarasota Quick Picks and Tips

Conventions

On Tamiami Trail, visitors will find the Van Wezel Performing Arts Hall, where guests can see a variety of local performances. It's easily recognizable by the large and purple building.

Dining

Much of Sarasota has a flavor as diverse as the arts that are found there. Much of it can be found near Baypoint Park. Ophelia's on the Bay is regarded as one of Sarasota's most romantic restaurants in town. Other places, such as Marina Jack's Restaurant, offer amazing panoramic views of the coast.

Major Point of Interest

Visitors at hotels in Sarasota will love the famous Ringling Museum Complex, featuring tours and their very own museum of art.

Shopping

It is highly recommended that guests visiting Sarasota visit the Artisan's World Marketplace. Artwork from artists from all over the world is sold here. Proceeds made from sales are used to support the families of artists living in developing countries.

Activities

Boat tours are available for guests at the Sarasota Bay Explorers center, with inexpensive tours from the aquarium.
