Beach Ordinances
We have some of the world's most beautiful white sand beaches in Anna Maria, which is the number one reason most of us are here. Keep in mind you are sharing the beach with some endangered species. Manatees, sea turtles, nesting birds and other marine life depend on us cleaning up after ourselves. Everything we bring to the beach leaves with us when the fun is done. To keep the beaches and waters pristine, and allow us to all be sun and surf lovers, the following are prohibited:
1. Alcoholic Beverages
2. Glass containers of any kind
3. Pets of any species of animal
4. Grills or fires of any kind (grills are permitted in Bay Front Park on North Bay Drive)
5. Launching of motorized vessels
6. Anchoring vessels to the beach
7. Motorized vehicles, including golf carts
8. Bicycles
9. DO NOT IN ANY WAY MOLEST OR IMPEDE THE PROGRESS OF MANATEES OR SEA TURTLES!!!
