Why Anna Maria Island Makes A Fun Winter Getaway
Chris Harmen is a writer for Anna Maria Gulf Coast Rentals, top Anna Maria vacation (http://www.amgcrentals.com/) rentals firm. Anna Maria rentals (http://rentals.amgcrentals.com/RNS/search/searchoptions.aspx) offer affordable Florida beach houses and condos close to beaches, restaurants and more.
Dreary days of overcast skies, frazzled tempers, and chilling temperatures all come hand in hand with winter weather. An Anna Maria vacation offers the perfect winter escape with warm sunny days, white sand beaches, and a wide selection of dining, shopping, and outdoor entertainment opportunities, all at affordable prices. Compared to other warm weather destinations, such as the Caribbean and the Bahamas, inexpensive Florida travel and accommodations help make an Anna Maria vacation well within any family’s budget. Instead of hibernating at home, northerners can shake those winter blues with boating, fishing, hiking, and dancing the night away.
While other states are buried under snow or inundated with icy rain, an Anna Maria vacation in the Gulf coast of Florida offers mild temperatures, sunny days, and plenty of entertainment to ensure visitors return home rested, refreshed, and maybe even a little bit tan!
Fun In The Sun
Research has shown that many people are adversely affected by the shorter days of winter. Overcast skies, colder temperatures, and reduced outdoor activities take their toll on mood, health, and energy levels. Slipping away to the Gulf coast of Florida offers rest and respite from chain food restaurants, thoughtless crowds, and too much concrete. The seven miles of pristine, white sand beaches that surround the island make it a natural haven and sanctuary to birds and vacationers alike. The winter temperatures range from the mid 70′s into the 80′s, providing plenty of warm sunshine. Anna Maria vacations offer fishing, boating, nature trails, spa treatments, and countless other activities geared toward holiday pleasure.
Affordable Getaways
Anna Maria vacations are far more affordable than a European cruise, a big city extravaganza, or a week in the Caribbean. At the same time, visitors can enjoy pristine, white sand beaches, unique shops and restaurants, and world class entertainment, all without spending a bundle. The easy access and flight discounts to Florida make it an affordable holiday any time of year. Stores, services, and Anna Maria rentals are all offered at reduced prices during the off season months. Visitors to the island can rent horses from Beach Horses, kayaks from a number of distributors, or try their hand at parasailing with Fun & Sun Parasail.
Unique Businesses & Beaches
Many winter destinations offer warm weather and beaches, but an Anna Maria vacation can combine all that loveliness and comfort with small town courtesy, Olde World charm, and undeveloped areas of unmatched beauty. There are four unique beaches to explore and dozens of small businesses that offer one-of-a-kind menus, souvenirs, and experiences unlike any other. Guests can even tour the island on a Segway with Zegway by the Bay or enjoy the free island trolley. Join the in-crowd at Banana Cabana or enjoy lunch at Hurricane Hank’s. Savor the favorites at the world famous Sandbar or step back in time on the 110-foot Mississippi sternwheeler, where you can enjoy a sunset dinner cruise aboard the Seafood Shack and Restaurant Showboat.
Holmes Beach is the business center of the island, while Anna Maria Beach offers a more historical atmosphere. Perico Island is recognized around the world for bird watching and exquisite nature trails. Bradenton Beach, at the southern most point of the island offers leisure time activities in abundance at the 96-acre Coquina Beach nature reserve. Whichever part of the island appeals to you, Anna Maria rentals provide convenient access to nature trails, museums, Smugglers Cove Adventure Golf, unique shopping.
With warm weather, affordable accommodations and unique activities and beaches to explore, Anna Maria Island makes an ideal winter escape the entire family will enjoy.
