Manasota Key


MANASOTA KEY is a barrier island off the coast of Englewood where there are no high-rises, no traffic lights, just a two-lane road and pristine Beaches. The north end which is located in Sarasota County has private homes on one-acre lots, tucked behind lush tropical foliage.  The south end, located in Charlotte County has mixed commercial and residential zoning with homes, low-rise condo’s, resort accommodations and several quality Restaurants.

Located on the beautiful Lemon Bay, off the coast of the Gulf of Mexico, Englewood is just a short 85 mile trip away from metropolitan Tampa Bay, 90 miles north of Naples, 50 miles north of Fort Myers, and only 35 miles south of Sarasota.  Englewood is easily accessible from U.S. Route 41 or Interstate 75.

Shark Teeth are abundant of the beaches.  Some of these shark teeth are over a million years old, black and brown colored, ranging from a tiny 1/8th inch to three inches long.

Celebrated every Labor Day Weekend, Englewood commemorates the pioneers who were responsible for its origin in 1896.   Golf and fishing tournaments, boat races, Buchan airfield aviation day and a huge parade bring this community to life.  There is also an annual Turtle Watch.   When Sea Turtles come ashore to lay their eggs in the sand.
