The Bay is a new, signature, public park along Sarasota Bay. Designed to be “one park for all,” The Bay is open and accessible, free and welcoming to the full and rich diversity of the community, now and for generations to come.
From access to Sarasota Bay, to a blue and green oasis in the middle of the city, to nature and wildlife and stunning sunsets - these are all extraordinary experiences unique to this park land.
We provide open and free access to the arts, culture, and education; to fitness, health, recreation and relaxation; to activities and experiences the community can enjoy and share together.
