Shell Fun on Anna Maria Island

By -
Welcome to the beautiful Anna Maria Island.
While on your stay be sure to head down to our clear water and white sandy beaches. Also look out for Sting rays,Starfish,Sand dollars and Sea shells while on the beach.

Sting Rays
Can live to 15 to 25 years old, and up to 790 lbs. String rays are a threatened species and they live in warm,tropical waters. There can be up to 8 in a litter. Favorite food is crustaceans,snails,and fish. DO NOT FEED OR TOUCH THEM!

Starfish
Starfish only thrive in salt water, They have the ability to regenerate body parts. A lost limb of a starfish can create a new starfish. The average life span of a starfish is 35 years old. They are great to look at but please f you see one out of the water that is still of color then please help it back into the water. It is illegal to remove starfish from of water if alive. 

Sand dollar
Sand dollars move using the spines on the uderside body. They barrow down in the sand for protection and food. They are about 2 to 4 inches across. when they are dead they turn white and that is the only time you are allowed to take sand dollars off the beach. 

Also along the beach you will find some of our amazing Sea shells.
 They come in all different shapes and sizes.

Vibrio vulnificus is not the same thing as Necrotising Faciitis which can be caused by many strains of bacteria, including Vibrio Vulnificus. Vibrio Vulnificus infections happen only rarely, with two confirmed cases in Manatee county residents in 2016, zero in 2015, and one in 2014, according to the Florida department of health. Of these there were no deaths. So while we are all far more likely to expire from a car accident, or even the flu, than from a Vibrio Vulnificus infection, there are still some precautions we can take. People with weakened immune syste...
