Sarasota’s Glimmering Waterways and Deep Forested Canopies are the Perfect Stage for Magical Full Moon Nights
Gathering to celebrate the day dripping into night is a well-loved Sarasota ritual. By twilight, locals and visitors alike are drawn to the sparkling shorelines to witness a kaleidoscope of colors streak the sky before the sun melts into the horizon. The ritual is even more spectacular when paired with the monthly one – when the fire of the setting sun balances for a few breathtaking moments with the unbelievable hugeness and luminescence of a rising full moon.
These public parks and town centers offer endless activity programming and community events that locals and visitors alike can get in on all throughout the week – and year!
From waterfront parks to dynamic town centers, these spaces bring people together with free weekly activities you can join regularly, annual events and programming for all ages. Whether you’re looking to get active, enjoy live music or attend cultural and holiday events, there’s something for everyone at Sarasota's master-planned outdoor spaces.
