The City of Anna Maria is a residential community, situated at the northern end of Anna Maria Island. Our city is known for its world class beaches, its friendly people and its laid-back lifestyle. Our Island sister cities are Holmes Beach,
just to our south, and Bradenton Beach, which stretches to the southern tip of the island.
Many of our city’s property owners are part-time residents. Anna Maria’s population is just over 1800, but roughly triple that during the winter season when our weather is the envy of most of the rest of the country.
You can always find so much to do on Anna Maria Island, located on the Gulf Coast of Florida! Anna Maria Island is broken up into 3 Cities - Bradenton Beach, Holmes Beach and Anna Maria, and can be toured by our free Trolly. Start the day out enjoying the view and breakfast at Gulf Drive Cafe, or grab a "To Go Order" from Paradise Bagels and enjoy it on the white sugar sand beach. A wonderful selection of shops can be visited from one end of Anna Maria Island to the other,
or slip over the bridge to Long Boat Key for the afternoon. Evenings can be satisfied with a wonderful dinner at Beach Bistro or one of the many Award Winning restaurants. Enjoy a live performance at Island Players, or live music at The Beach House. Vacations in Florida start on Anna Maria Island.
