Holmes Beach Florida

Holmes Beach Florida is a small and elegant beach located on Anna Maria Island with 3-miles of untouched beauty to offer its visitors.

Holmes Beach maintains this worry-free atmosphere and the people who live here are friendly and make you feel right at home from the start.

Stop for coffee and spend an hour here with the local folks and we bet you won’t be able to resist the temptation to unpack and stay awhile on this incredible beach.

Holmes Beach is one of five beaches on Anna Maria Island and a favorite of many. Visit the others; each one is unique with its own personality.



Great activities to try and nearby attractions:

  • For some great fishing options, the Anna Maria City Pier and the Rod & Reel Pier on Tampa Bay is the place for you.
  • History lovers must visit De Soto National Memorial located in the nearby city of Bradenton that features exhibits containing weapons, armor and other historical items related to Spanish and Native American conquests and war history. There’s even a fun area where you and the kids can try on some of the armor and costumes.

  • Learn how to drive your own Segway and take a guided tour of Anna Maria Island at Zegway by the Bay.



Kids of most ages: Playing in the water, riding the waves is a favorite pastime of children here. Have a sand sculpting competition or rent a kayak for a family self-guided beach tour.

Eating: Have a romantic meal at the Beach Bistro but beware, this delicious food is a bit pricey. For a less expensive but still tasty meal, try Solo’s Pizza.

Sleeping: For a stay that is reminiscent of the 50s era, check out the Blue Water Beach Club.

Stay right on the beach for a price you can afford at the White Sands Beach Resort.
