Our Condo – A309

The first two pictures in the Gallery are aerial views of our condo complex. It is hard to appreciate how close we are to the Gulf and bay without seeing it from the air. Our condos sits on a VERY narrow strip of sand. This unique location provides you with direct water views from every room.

We are on a VERY narrow strip of sand - every room has a direct water view.

The condo is on the beach and direct Gulf-front (Oceanfront).

Sunsets From our Lanai

With its sliding floor to ceiling glass panels and clear glass railing, our lanai is the perfect place to enjoy spectacular sunsets over the Gulf. We also installed a sliding screen so you can capture your own breathtaking photos.

As you can see in the pictures below, some of the most amazing sunsets occur when the sky is almost filled with clouds, but the horizon is clear. On those evenings the sun will illuminate the clouds from beneath after it disappears below the horizon. This light show can go on for as long as 30 minutes after the sun sets.

Full moon-sets, which occur early in the morning, can be spectacular too. Click here to see the times for sunrise, sunset and moon-set during your stay.

Our Beach

The distance from our lanai and master bedroom window to the Gulf is only about 50 feet. Even during the peak of tourist season, you’ll find plenty of room to set up your umbrellas and chairs.

If you like long walks on the beach and collecting seashells, you will love our location. To the south you can walk often in near solitude for miles and enjoy the best shelling on Siesta Key. You will also enjoy over a mile of totally undeveloped beachfront.

To the south of us the island quickly narrows to less than 200 feet and is very private and remote. Decades ago there was a pass there that separated Siesta Key from Casey Key. You will see a small marker now where the pass once was. If you continue walking south, you’ll encounter a lone tree that marks the path to Stephen King’s house.

To the north the beach extends nearly two miles before ending at Point of Rocks, which is good spot for snorkeling.

The best shelling on Siesta Key starts right behind our condo and extends miles to the south

This Fossilized Megalodon Shark Tooth was found by a guest in knee deep water directly in front of our condo. It is likely over 5 million years old.

Looking North from the walk that crosses the dune in front of our condo. Let's explore to the North first.

Nothing relieves stress better than a daily dose of Vitamin Sea and Wave Therapy

Some days the Gulf is a still as a farm pond and the water is nearly as clear as the pool.

Siesta Key Juvenile Manatee — When the water is still, keep an eye out for Manatees swimming close by shore

After passing the public beach and a few low-rise condos, it's often just you, the birds and some cool beachfront houses

I must have missed the memo about this morning's meeting...

A Siesta Key beachfront house you'll see on a walk to the north from our condo

To the south there is over a mile of totally undeveloped beachfront to stroll before you reach Casey Key

It's not uncommon to find piles of shells along the beach - particularly when you walk to the south

Siesta Key and Casey Key are joined — Siesta Key and Casey Key used to be separated by Midnight Pass, but were joined decades ago

Siesta Key narrows to only about 100'where it joins Casey Key. You can easily walk across to see the Bird Islands

Rent a paddleboard or kayak to visit the Bird Islands on the Bay side and and walk over the dune to the Gulf

If you continue your walk south there is a pretty good chance you'll see far more birds than people on our quiet end of Siesta Key

Snowy Egrets are commonly seen along the beach

Blue Heron are common on southern Siesta Key and don't mind posing for pictures.

The Black Skimmer's lower bill juts out and is used to "skim" the water

Beachfront Siesta Key American White Ibis — The American White Ibis is most commonly seen in groups sifting the surf for food when the wind kicks up the waves.

At the southern tip of Siesta Key you will occasionally find fossilized shark teeth. However, if you're interested, I can tell you where you can go to pick up a palm full in a short walk.

The beach extends to the south farther than you'll probably want to walk

We've walked well into Casey Key - let's turn around and head back north

Being on the southern tip of Siesta Key has its advantages. We're a short drive from the action, but only steps from this unspoiled beauty.

After a long beach walk, our condo looks like an oasis

Rent a paddle-board, kayak or jet ski and get up close with the manatees that often play in the bay right in front of our condo

In the late fall, winter and early spring you'll commonly see groups of manatees, including young calves, in the bay

This big bull manatee was evidently thirsty
