Lido Key Beaches

Lido Key offers three sections of prime Florida waterfront. You’ll find seclusion, a public area and a charming park on this popular barrier island off Sarasota’s coastline.

North Lido Beach

Many locals head north just off St Armands Circle for a little seclusion during the popular winter season in Sarasota. North Lido Beach is a private half-mile stretch of beach which historically was a topless beach until the 1980s. Visitors enjoy wandering along the beach, shelling and watching the cool Gulf waters. Waterfront homes here take advantage of the incredible views.

Lido Beach

Offering visitors a pavilion with concessions, restrooms and plenty of parking spaces, Lido Beach is busy year round. This Gulf Coast beach also has a 25-meter swimming pool available to the public at a small charge.

South Lido Park

At the very south end of Lido Key, South Lido Park is a popular destination for nature lovers. This 200 acre park offers visitors walking trails, lots of picnic tables, grills and also a playground. Boaters are not allowed near designated swimming area, but boaters and kayakers enjoy the park too.
