As a coastal location surrounded by water, it stands as a given that the seafood is always fresh and of the highest quality. Grouper and stone crabs are two standouts on this barrier island. However, there are a handful of beach bistros, burger stands, charming cafés and romantic restaurants that offer enough options to satisfy every member of the family or vacation party. So whether you want barbeque on the beach or classic Italian washed down with some wine and a sunset over the bay, you’ll find it here in Anna Maria Island.
