About City of Bradenton Beach

Bradenton Beach is a charming and vibrant community of 1,500 located at the southern end of Anna Maria Island. The Island is located at the southern entrance to Tampa Bay on the Gulf of Mexico. We share the island with our sister cities of Holmes Beach and Anna Maria City.

Access to Anna Maria Island can be achieved from the mainland (Bradenton) via bridges on Cortez Road or Manatee Avenue or from Longboat Key to the south via the bridge over Longboat Pass

The city boasts miles of uninterrupted supervised public sugar sand beaches on the Gulf side and calm docking and mooring areas on the mangrove lined bay side.

Vision Statement


Bradenton Beach is a small, friendly island community replete with Old Florida Charm; where both permanent and seasonal residents display civic pride and encourage balanced growth.

We have profound respect for our beach and environment and are well regarded for our lush landscaping and recreation opportunities. Mobility can be achieved with similar ease via trolley, car, bicycle or foot....
