Turtle Beach & Campground: A Hidden Gem on Siesta Key
If you’re craving a quieter, more natural beach experience in Sarasota, Turtle Beach is your go-to coastal escape. Known for its laid-back atmosphere and famous sea turtle nesting habitat, Turtle Beach is a peaceful alternative to the busier Siesta Key Beach.
Located on the southern end of Siesta Key, this pristine shoreline is perfect for shelling, kayaking, paddleboarding, and boating — thanks to convenient on-site launches. And for nature lovers, Turtle Beach Campground offers 39 RV and tent sites just steps from the sand, making it one of Florida’s few beachfront campgrounds.
Even better? You can hop on the free Seabreeze Trolley and explore Siesta Key Village for food, shopping, and fun. Whether you’re a weekend visitor or considering a move, Turtle Beach captures the authentic, nature-infused Sarasota lifestyle.
