Radiating a shimmering allure the moment its name first appeared on a Spanish map in 1763, Sarasota has always been a centre of intrigue and charm. Originally seating the Calusa tribe and later the city's namesake, the conquistador Hernando de Soto, the city is a rich canvas of history. Appointed the county seat of Sarasota County, it’s the southern end of the Greater Tampa Bay Area and an integral part of the Sarasota metropolitan area.

Its official borders beautifully cradle Sarasota Bay and boast numerous keys including Lido Key, St. Armands Key, Bird Key, and parts of Siesta Key. Orchestrating a fascinating blend of cultural and environmental merits with sandy beaches and well-preserved architecture, Sarasota emerges as a tropical haven with a total area of 24.08 square miles, much of it a mesmerising blend of land and water.

When to visit Sarasota

Sarasota's tropical climate ensures it's a destination to be cherished all year round. However, the ideal times to visit happen to be from March to May and September to November. March sees daytime temperatures in the high 50s, rising to high 80s by May, allowing for comfortable exploration of Sarasota's many offerings. While the winter months bring comfortable temperatures and higher prices, they also bring larger crowds, adding a great energy to the city.

For those looking for a balance between weather and expenses, summer provides a blend of affordable rates mingled with the arrival of the rain and humidity. In autumn, hurricane season might be in full swing, but it does not prevent visitors from relishing the endless charms of Sarasota. A medley of arts and crafts festivals, food and music festivals, and many other cultural events await you on your visit to this radiant city.
