Where she lies
Siesta Key, Florida
Whitest sand on the Gulf, fishing off the bow
Siesta Key is famous for the finest quartz-white sand in America, and a Grady-White here is the key to all of it: flats fishing in Sarasota Bay, grouper and snapper offshore in the Gulf, and sandbar afternoons a short run from the dock. Warm water most of the year and Sarasota's arts scene ashore.
