Start your ride through Phillippi Creek, a natural mangrove tunnel showing you what the Florida Gulf Coastal area looked like before it was developed. 

Within minutes,  you'll enter the Intracoastal Waterway towards the north side of Siesta Key.  Stay in the protected waters of the bay or head out to the Gulf through Big Sarasota Pass to experience the clear water and white sand that make Siesta Key famous.  From the calm water of the Bay to the clear water of the Gulf of Mexico, Siesta Skis offers the best location to experience the water in the Siesta Key / Sarasota area. 

There are 3 different riding areas outside the channel in protected bay waters plus the Gulf of Mexico within minutes of our location, so you can get away from traffic and have some room to ride.

1) Skiers Island

2) Big Pass/ South Lido

3) Sarasota Bay

4) Gulf of Mexico
