been vacationing here since i was a toddler 45 years ago. still my favorite place on the planet

[wafwaffle]

You did my area Proud, If I didn't already live here I would move here! Ive lived here in sarasota since 1985 and wow has it changed but still remains Beautiful.

[stevenscoggins]

You have the best travel channel on YT.

[indyanna]

Wonderful summers on Casey Key when I was a child.

[DSRQ]

Have lived in Sarasota for many years, Florida for 50 years, and it has many fine qualities of life. You should also know if you are thinking of settling here housing is very expensive, snowbird season makes it heavily congested to the point where if you live on the middle of a barrier island it can take 45 minutes to get on or off the island. Summer months are very hot. There is also unchecked new construction countywide, adding to the congestion. There are tradeoffs to living anywhere, so be aware before you commit.

We live in Venice and love going to Pops. Dolphins love that part of the intercoastal.

[urex]

Sunset fans will love Siesta Key and will also know to stick around while the sun colors the sky. Once in a great while, you will actually view a green sunset. That is the stuff that memories are made of.

[kelseymariel]

Definitely gorgeous area. My anti Beach teenagers even talk about when we are going back. Thank you for peace today from cold New England.❄️

[davidoverholt]

Beautiful view and beautiful time to cruise in Siesta Key! Not for the faint of budget!

[roopersstories]

Oh hey, a fresh Randy vid! Best part of the week! 🎉

[questdental]

Hi, I have watched two videos, so far. Virginia Beach and now this one. Very well done and informative, thank you. Greetings from Nokomis, FL. 👍

[gracegarden]

What an excellent episode! Thank you for putting all this together. So much information! I had to watch twice and I will view it again. I loved seeing Myakka River State Park. Sorry you couldn't climb the suspended walkway, but I'm glad it wasn't totally destroyed and can be fixed. Turtle Beach is by far my favorite, too, but let's tell people it's terrible there, OK? It can be our secret. I can't wait to see the gulf again. It is nice that you are putting yourself and Bella in the videos more. It makes it feel like I'm there, too. I appreciate all the work you put in to share your travels and what you learn along the way, and as a new dog owner, the info about pet-friendly places (more than I thought there'd be) has been great. Peace & Prayers.

[Kyriecat]

Love your videos! We vacation on Manasota yearly and go to Venice. It was like watching a slice of home away from home. 😻

[GregHalvorson]

I'll be in Sarasota area Feb 7 to Feb 15th... Never been. Can't wait. Thank you -- I have a page full of notes!

[wellarmedwife]

Born and raised in south Sarasota...back when 41 was two lanes and there was no I75 ...We left for five years for GA...and are back..never appreciated how beautiful it was here until we came back... And if you hit up Venice beach...the dog beach is devine..(and we drive half an hour south to get there) but be sure to stop by sharkys for lunch and a drink

[Jeannified]

I am pleasantly surprised to see these barrier islands looking so great after the hurricane. It seems like a miracle! Such a gorgeous area!

[teop]

The Hub has the #1 rated margaritas!

Love Siesta, can't wait to go back 👍👍

[SaiaRose]

My home ! You do a great job exploring my paradise ! God has blessed me ❤

[martinpenev]

Another stunning video which is a must to see if one plans to visit Florida.

I love how your videos always have such a good-feel vibes!

The scoot coupes look cute to drive, especially with Bella in it.

[LuxeJourneyVlogs]

Venice is beautiful. It’s nice to see a post hurricane Ian video that the place is still looking great. Thank you for this very informative video.
