Sarasota – where circus acrobatics meet the bold, colorful energy of street art.
Sarasota is a Gulf Coast city where a rich circus heritage meets a vibrant street art scene. Located on Florida’s Gulf Coast, about an hour south of Tampa. It has a walkable downtown with restaurants, galleries, and colorful murals, plus white-sand beaches just across the bay. It’s also where the Ringling Bros. circus once spent its winters, a history you can explore at the Ringling museum. It feels like a beach town with an arts scene of its own. For everyday life, there’s the Saturday farmers market, walks along Sarasota Bay, the Legacy Trail for biking and the Marie Selby Botanical Gardens and more.
