All About Bradenton

Nestled along Florida’s Gulf Coast, south of Tampa Bay, lies Bradenton, a small coastal city brimming with colorful architecture, nature reserves, and white-sand beaches. The vibrant city center features the scenic Bradenton Riverwalk, pubs and cafes, and art exhibitions at ArtCenter Manatee. You can learn more about the region at the Bishop Museum of Science and Nature, one of the largest natural history museums on Florida’s Gulf Coast, including a full-dome digital planetarium theater.

Renowned for its beautiful natural landscapes, Bradenton provides plenty of opportunities to connect with nature and wildlife at the city’s nature preserves, including Perico Preserve, Neal Preserve, and Rye Preserve. If a day swimming or sunbathing on one of Bradenton’s beaches is what you’re after, Coquina Beach and Cortez Beach boast warm, clear water and vast stretches of white sand. The town also offers a thriving arts and culture scene and plenty of green parks, gorgeous beaches, and informative museums that you won’t want to miss.

The five-story observation tower is one of the most notable features of Robinson Preserve and offers sweeping views of Tampa Bay.
