So much beauty! The beach was not too crowded, and the water warm. Manatees were swimming just 5 feet away from us.

When the wind blows from the east, the smell is gone. On other days its smells and there are dead fish all over the beach. SAD

We love the drum circle at Sunset on Wednesday nights! It’s such a great vibe with lots of camaraderie and dancing! And the sunset is gorgeous!

At the extreme risk of upsetting all those who love going to Nokomis Beach and want to keep it a secret ... But because of all the great reasons we really love this beach I will tell you the beach is beautiful, the beach is NOT crowded and best of all like many of us, we love the great shelling on the beaches here .. ( Shhhhhh ! )

Really great beach with quality water and quality sand. No pier or restaurants which keeps the tourist/drinking crowd down. The drum circle on was awesome! We spent a month in Nokomis and most nights after work we would go to the beach with two chairs and a little cooler to watch the gorgeous sunset. Best month of my life that I can recall. It brought us closer to each other and closer to spirituality. I miss it terribly and would move there in a NY minute.

Water was beautiful, a bit to rough for us to get in but we still enjoyed it very much. So many beautiful shells too.

The beach is nice and quiet. You can find some amazing shells while enjoying the calm surf. You had plenty of room to yourself.

No I think too much boat traffic... the best beach for that seems to be Lido beach. We see them there all the time! Really cool!
Conheci Nokomis, Florida, Sarasota, através de fotos e me apaixonei. Moro no Rio de Janeiro e quero saber como chegar em Nokomis, onde hospedar em segurança por um preço rezoável, somos duas pessoas. Muito Giselle por sua atenção.

There is a public boat launch on the bay side. Go over the Albee Street bridge--turn right, take an immediate right and go over another very small bridge and there is a boat launch there.

Hallo, wann genau wart ihr auf Casey Key? Wir haben dort unsere letzten Urlaubstage geplant und wir haben noch die Bilder von Fort Myers im Kopf. Dort konnte man am Strand kaum atmen. Es war echt gruselig und das will ich nicht zum Urlaubsausklang.

We traveled there in October 2017 and February 2018. Never felt crowded at any time. Can't wait until our next visit, just waiting for a great deal on airfare.

No, not at Nokomis. Travel down farther south, past Venice Beach, near Sharkeys and you will find a dog beach.
