I am from here and I appreciate everyone that comes and enjoys the area and beaches. Thank you for coming...we hope you get a chance to come back soon.
Been to Anna Maria Island and Bradenton many times over the last twenty years.Video gives a great description of the area.Coquina Beach by Longboat pass is our favourite place to chill.Lots of dolphins and manatees can be seen cruising the pass.Not to be missed.
Me and my family just visited Bradenton Beach last week for the first time ever! And we just loved it!! Its so beautiful. The most beautiful and amazing place I've ever seen. Will be going back again.
Literally the only beach I go to. Parents took us to AMI for as long as I've been alive. And even now I always love going back, even for day trips to the beach
great video!! had to subscribe!! keep making them!....fell in Love with the island 12 yeas ago, could not afford the island so we bought a place in Paradise bay estates on Sarasota bay just over the bridge on the main land. It truely is Paradise so close to the island! So so Blessed.
My family and I just booked 3 days on AMI for Spring Break. I can’t wait! I have been to Siesta Key, but am looking forward to exploring AMI. Great footage! Thanks.
thank you so much for making this video. I am in AWED viewing such paradise that when we move to FL this summer (Oregon) I just may have to follow you in your footsteps. The food places were just as exciting as the beaches.
We are bringing our boat ("Our Escape") down from Cincinnati for a week. Renting a house on Harden. Your video is awesome!!!! Thanks for sharing. One of the best videos I've watched yet!!!
Thanks Jeff, if you haven’t been you will love it! Finishing up my next video of Naples now and hearing great feedback like this makes me hold myself to a higher standard. You put a smile on my face!
Great video! Our sons and their families joined us for a Christmas on AMI. We rented a house and it was wonderful…everyone had a great time! Would love to return some day! 🇨🇦
We just stayed at an amazing home in Flamingo Cay. It is three miles from this island, but on the canal. 10211 Kingfisher Rd. We totally love the island, but a nice quiet neighborhood at the end of the day is nice too! Enjoyed this video . Check out the Sea Hag on Cortez next time. Pretty amazing collection of items for sale.
Been going there since the 80's when our kids were little. Now the "kids" take their own kids there. A bit more busier now than what it used to be , but still beautiful.
My Dad hated to stay at home on weekends. So we alternated between the "Shack" on the Homosassa river and an old house on Anna Maria island. I loved Anna Maria. The only restaurant was Pete's. That was okay, my Dad cooked great steaks for dinner and grits his way for breakfast. I was always allowed to invite atleast one friend.
If you rent it we would be interested in the future. We love this area! We drive each year from South Carolina for vacation! We still love our low country and beaches but AMI and the Gulf is special!
Did you guys go there in the middle of pandemics? 😁 From the looks of it, it was a year prior. I live in central FL but never visited it. I'm so going there in July after a few family trips outside of FL.
It was July of last year, so yes. We spent all of our time outside including eating out so it was not a big deal. It is a laid back, beautiful spot I am sure you will enjoy. Have fun!
Don't miss the village of Cortez...great seafood places. And you can fish off many beaches and piers and catch your own dinner...trout, sheephead and redfish are delicious, as are the pompano and flatfish.
With a little over 8 thousand people there what are the job prospects like there, I'd like to take a trip there but I'm out of money and might like to stay for a bit but I'd need a place to stay.
Rents are high so you might find a job but still may not be able to afford to actually live on the island. Just across the bridge in Bradenton, you'll find reasonable rent.
Hello, new to the channel, I'm planning to take my hubby there for our 2year wedding anniversary.( it's waaaay overdue), so ANYBODY, PLEASE give me some ideas for things to do while we're there for our 3day vacay!
I would go to Bean Pt one day, dinner at Beach House, be sure to catch the sunset from the beach. Minnies for breakfast or a snack - the danish could feed a family. Visit at least one pier. I hear the Waterfront is a good spot for a nice meal.
Chris H That’s probably a fair call, but all of the beaches on the Island have super clear water. Coquina Beach has the best parking and a wide, soft sand beach.
I moved to this area 10 years ago and no commercial franchises were allowed. The Marriott Waterline has destroyed the old Florida ambiance. I don't know how or why that was allowed but it really is an eyesore. Now developers are buying up the smaller rental management companies and increasing visitor rentals by 300%.
Hello Bob very nice travel vlog, the voice over is very good, all the shots are cinematic especially the drone footage, really enjoyed watching the video it has got a lot of variety, well done, hope you will connect with my channel and we stay connected thanks 🙂
You make a nice video but I grew up here I'm sick of golf carts and cigarette butts I wish all you people would just go away and if you don't know how to drive stay home
Incredible views posted by this great narrator.
Best Place in The WHOLE ENTIRE WORLD
SO BEAUTIFUL
SO PERFECT

One of the most beautiful and clean beaches in the world. I don't live in that area anymore and I sure do miss it.
Literally the only beach I go to. Parents took us to AMI for as long as I've been alive. And even now I always love going back, even for day trips to the beach

We love AMI! Going in 4 weeks for our 30th Wedding Anniversary! Loved your video! Certainly going to make it to Bean Point this year!

I’ll have to check out the Sea Hag. Thanks
What an awesome video! Definately has me wanting to visit there! Great job!
Beautiful!
Thank you so much for all recommendations 🙏🏻✨
You are welcome!
Been going there since the 80's when our kids were little. Now the "kids" take their own kids there. A bit more busier now than what it used to be , but still beautiful.
Great video. You did a really good job! Thanks for showing so many different beaches and restaurants. What month did you visit?
June

Love to go
I have a house on Holmes beach. Just an amazing spot.
If you rent it we would be interested in the future. We love this area! We drive each year from South Carolina for vacation! We still love our low country and beaches but AMI and the Gulf is special!
Nice!

@@bobshotstravel This is from July 2020 and no one is wearing a mask!!! 🤣 Welcome to Florida I guess.
Don't miss the village of Cortez...great seafood places. And you can fish off many beaches and piers and catch your own dinner...trout, sheephead and redfish are delicious, as are the pompano and flatfish.
Nice video.... Is Anna maria island the best place you can get in Florida in term of clear water ? or did you find anything better so far ???
It is definitely near the top. The panhandle has some nice beaches with very clear water as well.
Spent a week on AMI three years ago at Christmas. Now looking to retire to the area.
Thank you
With a little over 8 thousand people there what are the job prospects like there, I'd like to take a trip there but I'm out of money and might like to stay for a bit but I'd need a place to stay.
Rents are high so you might find a job but still may not be able to afford to actually live on the island. Just across the bridge in Bradenton, you'll find reasonable rent.
we love this place, only one thing wrong with this video, it went too fast.
who gives a fucking shit
What is the name of beach at the 9:08 mark?
Pretty sure that is Manatee Beach, near Skinny’s & the Anna Maria Island Beach Cafe.
Subbed
Hello, new to the channel, I'm planning to take my hubby there for our 2year wedding anniversary.( it's waaaay overdue), so ANYBODY, PLEASE give me some ideas for things to do while we're there for our 3day vacay!
I would go to Bean Pt one day, dinner at Beach House, be sure to catch the sunset from the beach. Minnies for breakfast or a snack - the danish could feed a family. Visit at least one pier. I hear the Waterfront is a good spot for a nice meal.
Would you say cocina beach had the clearest water?
Chris H That’s probably a fair call, but all of the beaches on the Island have super clear water. Coquina Beach has the best parking and a wide, soft sand beach.
Thanks!
How's parking at manatee beach?
Decent amount of parking but can fill up
I moved to this area 10 years ago and no commercial franchises were allowed. The Marriott Waterline has destroyed the old Florida ambiance. I don't know how or why that was allowed but it really is an eyesore. Now developers are buying up the smaller rental management companies and increasing visitor rentals by 300%.
You'd be surprised where all that "great seafood" comes from at most seaside restaurants! Much of it is no where near local caught!
Yeah it should be a crime
Stay home we don’t need anymore tourist congesting our roads
Hello Bob very nice travel vlog, the voice over is very good, all the shots are cinematic especially the drone footage, really enjoyed watching the video it has got a lot of variety, well done, hope you will connect with my channel and we stay connected thanks 🙂

@@bobshotstravel thanks I hope you will connect with the channel thanks
@@bobshotstravel thanks I hope you will enjoy the channel and connect thanks
Hey Bob hija asiática como que te cayo el sancho padrino
I live here in paradise and own a rental here also. I'm a Realtor so if you want to own or rent on the island look me up. I'd love to help you.
You make a nice video but I grew up here I'm sick of golf carts and cigarette butts I wish all you people would just go away and if you don't know how to drive stay home
