Discover Longboat Key


The Great Outdoors

With pristine white-sand beaches, incredible seafood, and tons of recreational water activities, Longboat Key is ostensibly one of the best places to vacation and it’s not as heavily-trafficked as other destinations in Florida. Apart from the beaches and other attractions, Longboat Key is not too far from more popular destinations like Orlando or Tampa, where you could explore the city and maybe cross some things off your bucket list. So, whether you want to sip a cold beer at the beach, go on a guided fishing trip, or just check out the local Florida cuisine, Longboat Key is a no-brainer for a full vacation or a spontaneous getaway, especially when you rent an RV.

A nearby island going by the name of Beer Can Island holds a straightforward one-mile trail that should be no problem. Once you’re done with the trail, there is a picnic area available where you can sit down for a much-needed snack, or cool yourself down in the water. There aren’t many other trails in this area, but you could always walk along the Longboat Key coastline, which is 11 miles in length.

For anglers or just those who want to try their hand at fishing, there are many guides in the area that will take you and your family on a guided fishing trip. Many of these guides offer full day or half day trips, depending on how much fishing you want to do, but you’re bound to catch something. There are many fish in the area, but some of the ones that stand out are the snook, known for their incredible fight, permit, red grouper, kingfish, and many others. Some of the guides will even clean your catch so you can take it back to the RV and whip up a delicious seafood dish.

RV Parks

With so much to do, it can be hard to find the time to book a parking space for your RV rental near Longboat Key. For starters, you could ask permission to park at the local Walmart in Sarasota, and although it’s not guaranteed you will get a parking spot, it’s a decent option if you just need a place to park for the night. You won't find any amenities here, though, so if you'd like some extra comforts, you can always park at a nearby campground or RV park.

There aren’t any RV parks in Longboat Key, but in Sarasota and the nearby cities, you can stay at one of the various RV parks. At the Holiday Cove RV Resort in Cortez, you can expect multiple RV parking spaces with water and electricity hookups. For amenities, there is a laundry room and there’s also a fitness center and a lounge with Wi-Fi available. RV travelers who bring their boat will be surprised to know that there is a boat ramp on-site and boat slips as well. And finally, there is a golf course nearby just in case you feel like playing a few holes. And there are other RV parks like this for your RV rental near Longboat Key.

Exploring The City

There are quite a few attractions to explore in and around the city when you rent an RV in Longboat Key. You can take the kids to the aquarium in nearby Sarasota where they house many marine animals that you won’t see anywhere else. With such fun displays of local and exotic fishes alike, it’s a great idea to spend the day and learn more about marine biology. For another idea, visit the local rum distillery, which offers tours and tastings of their small-batch products.

With Tampa, Orlando, and Miami within easy driving distance, you are never too far away from the fun. In Orlando, you could visit two of the biggest amusement parks in the country. Orlando is known for being home to Disney World and Universal Studios, and just those two parks require a few days visit to see and experience everything fully. Tampa has the big city vibe, but it’s on the coast so that way you’re always close to the beach. And Miami, what can be said about Miami that hasn’t been said before. Miami is the most well-known city in Florida, and apart from its luxurious hotels and five-star restaurants, it is a city full of culture that never ceases to amaze.
