If you haven’t yet heard of this beachy gem on Florida’s Gulf coast, it’s only because the vibe here is way too mellow to boast.
Are you already missing summer? For those of us who love the sun, the cold and gray of winter can get us down. But don’t despair, sunchaser! If you live in Connecticut, you’re just an easy flight away from a laid-back sun-drenched winter getaway in Florida’s Bradenton Area.
Breeze Airways is helping New Englanders beat the chill this winter with nonstop flights from Westchester County Airport and Bradley International Airport to Sarasota-Bradenton International Airport (SRQ), Bradenton’s convenient local airport.
Why the Bradenton Area? If you haven’t yet heard of this beachy gem on Florida’s Gulf coast, it’s only because the vibe here is way too mellow to boast. This charming, laid-back beach town is authentic Florida at its best – local restaurants, not chains, sugar-white sands, and a clock that always reads Happy Hour. Comprised of Bradenton, Anna Maria, and Longboat Key, you get plenty of the outdoor adventure of a classic Florida vacation, but the Bradenton Area offers an escape, with a slower pace that lends itself to wining, dining, and unwinding.
Bradenton may be a mellow beach bum town, but there’s still plenty to do, especially during the winter months. Obviously, the beaches of the Bradenton Area are a major draw. Sink your toes in the sugar-white sand and enjoy the surf of this stunning paradise. Coquina Beach Park is a great beach choice for the kids. If you’re looking for secluded, find your way to idyllic Bean Point, one of Florida’s most pristine beaches.
When you’re ready to eat, prepare yourself for true local flavor. Bradenton features over 60 locally owned and operated restaurants offering the entire gamut of fresh, delicious Floribbean cuisine – a unique fusion of ingredients from the Caribbean Islands and Florida – prepared by the local masters themselves.
Bradenton might be all sun and fun, but even here, we have time for Santa. Skip the cold and board the North Pole Express in Florida instead. Departing every year from the Florida Railroad Museum in Parrish, this merry ride transports you and the family to a holiday wonderland. Enjoy the lights and decorations, unlimited hot chocolate and cookies, a model train display, and arts and crafts, and, of course, jolly ol’ Saint Nick himself, helping you get in the holiday spirit.
While your friends back home are shoveling snow, winter is festival season in the Bradenton Area. After a day in the sun on a quiet beach or an afternoon out on the bay kayaking or fishing, you can enjoy live music, food fests, artistic events, farmer’s markets, a county fair, and a time-honored race on the Manatee River.
If you live nearby the Westchester County Airport, there’s no reason to spend the chilly winter months without a trip to somewhere warm and sunny. Delicious food, a laid-back atmosphere, stunning beaches, exciting events, and tons of sunshine await you. Book a nonstop flight today to paradise on Earth, the classic Florida experience of the Bradenton Area. Don’t delay, as vacation rental spots and resorts often fill up quickly. Start planning your escape now. See you on the sand!
