SARASOTA / BRADENTON

It’s time for fun in the sun on Florida’s Gulf Coast.

Come visit the golf courses, MLB spring training, and the best beach in the country—all easily reached from MidAmerica St. Louis Airport on Allegiant Airlines.

With nearly 40 miles of shoreline, Sarasota County is home to some of the most beautiful beaches in the world. In 2020, Sarasota’s Siesta Beach was named the No. 1 Beach in the U.S. in TripAdvisor’s Traveler’s Choice Awards, and for good reason: powder-soft sand, warm water, and easy access to tons of amenities make this beach a must-visit.

Sarasota is also a golf haven, with an abundance of courses for all experience levels, including the Bobby Jones Golf Club and TPC Prestancia. For those who would rather swing a racquet than a club, the region is full of award-winning tennis clubs and public courts. Museums and performance venues dot Sarasota County, giving rise to its nickname “Florida’s Cultural Coast.” However you like to spend your vacation, Sarasota is ready to welcome you.
