Heading west on Albee Road from Tamiami Trail you will run straight into Nokomis Beach upon traveling over the Intracoastal Waterway. Situated on the Barrier Island of Casey Key, you will experience all that living along the Gulf of Mexico has to offer at Nokomis Beach and the Jetties.
Nokomis beach encompasses 22 acres with 1,700 feet on the Gulf and 3,200 feet on the Intracoastal with a laid back feel offering amenities such as:
• New Pavilion hosting restrooms and a snack bar serving sandwiches and cold drinks.
• Deck and boardwalk leading to beach and picnic shelters.
• Playground
• Boat ramp
For a fun free event on Wednesday and Saturday evenings you will find many locals and visitors gathering approximately an hour before sunset for the Drum Circle. A collection of dancers and drummers will entertain you and encourage you to feel the rhythm and participate in the fun!
Towards the southern tip of Casey Key you will find the North Jetty Park which is family oriented with something for everyone to enjoy. From fishing on the jetty to walking along the beautiful coastline searching for shells, you will experience relaxation with breathtaking views of the turquoise Gulf and Intracoastal Waterway.
No worries if you run out of bait, the “Fish Camp”, conveniently located along the jetty rocks offers live bait as well as cold beverages and snacks. Many boaters often stop here as they veer through the channel on their way out into the Gulf of Mexico. “Beggar” the dolphin is frequently spotted within this area, bopping from boat to boat looking as cute as can be in search of handouts. But please don’t feed or touch him, it’s against the law!
At certain times of the year, especially during hurricane season, the North Jetty is known as a popular surfing spot. Surfers come as far as across state to ride the swells created from distant storms.
Being one of the less crowed beaches within Sarasota County, Nokomis beach is a true retreat to experience Old Florida’s true beauty!
Nick Herron & Kathleen Herron of the Herron Group would be glad to show you any of the properties listed on Sarasota’s Barrier Island of Casey Key. Call 941.350.5035.
Beach, Bay or Back Nine…Live the Dream
