One of the highlights of visiting Florida in the summer is the opportunity to experience “Savor Sarasota Restaurant Week.” This event features special multicourse lunch and dinner menus from some of Sarasota’s best restaurants, giving you a taste of the local culinary scene.

For beach enthusiasts, Sarasota boasts 35 miles of pristine beaches along the Gulf of Mexico, including the top-rated Siesta Key Beach. On the Atlantic coast, you can explore some of the best places to snorkel or scuba dive for free, such as the “Blue Heron Bridge” in Riviera Beach, featuring an 800-foot artificial reef teeming with marine life.

Kendra recommends taking advantage of the luxurious accommodations available in Florida. You can get discounts at resorts like the Longboat Key Club and the Lido Beach Resort in Sarasota. In the Palm Beaches, consider offers like the “Linger Longer and Save” at the Boca Raton Resort or the complementary third-night package at PGA National Resort.
