Anna Maria Island’s locally owned shops offer a window to the eclectic soul of a charming community.
In folksy Anna Maria, you can sip coffee, read the paper and shop for vintage jewelry at Ginny’s & Jane E’s at the Old IGA or browse funky handmade gifts at Three Island Monkeys.
Find local seascape paintings at Island Gallery West, Florida wines at Sweet Peas Winery and coastal trinkets and jewels at Sand Dollar Gift Shop amid the cluster of shops in the heart of Holmes Beach.
Along historic Bridge Street in Bradenton Beach, boutiques sell everything from functional art at Back Alley to classic beachwear at Two Sides of Nature, also in Anna Maria.
For nautical antiques, head to The Sea Hagg in the historic Cortez fishing village.
