For a livelier beach scene with food, drinks, and the Sunday sunset drum circle, simply walk north along the beach or hop on the free Siesta Key Breeze trolley. Point of Rocks Reef is only about 90 yards south, perfect for snorkeling, paddling, and exploring. The free trolley runs the length of the island, making it easy to reach Siesta Key s other beaches and eco attractions.
