Anna Maria Island Braces For Peak Holiday

President’s Day weekend marks the peak holiday time for Anna Maria Island. Special events attract even more visitors from nearby areas, adding to the winter residents pressure on congestion and parking.

What’s happening Valentine’s Day and President’s Day weekend? There’s a lot going on in the area and crowds and traffic congestion are assured. Go early, leave late but you’ll have to be patient. Take the shuttle bus to avoid hunting for a parking spot for your vehicle but expect to be at the mercy of slow traffic.
