Why Go
Downtown Sarasota — on Florida's Gulf Coast, south of Tampa and genuinely not part of Tampa Bay — is a compact, highly walkable urban core built around Sarasota Bay, with a dining scene, a gallery district (Palm Avenue's Gallery Row, the Towles Court Artist Colony) and a performing-arts calendar that outsizes the city itself, anchored by the Van Wezel Performing Arts Hall and Florida Studio Theatre.
MAX Insider Tip — Some bayfront park amenities were still finishing hurricane-recovery restoration as of this writing — the downtown core of dining, galleries and theaters is unaffected.
