Longboat Key
Parties of peacocks are used to stopping traffic on beautiful Longboat Key, showing off their unfettered access on this barrier island. Local legend says that they’re descended from a peacock and peahen given to a local couple in the 1950s. The peacocks rule the roost in the north, home to the historic neighborhood of Longboat Village. There, older seaside cottages—many built in the 1930s, 1940s, and 1950s—remain, unchanged from when the island was only accessible by boat. Over at the south end of the island, there are gated communities and high-rise condominiums that were built in the 1980s, including the Longboat Key Club resort. You’ll also find newer single-family houses and developments at both ends of the island. Unlike Siesta Key with its busy beach, Longboat Key’s beach only has 12 public access points, so the sands are never crowded, and it feels like a private getaway.
