Bayshore Gardens offers its residents a wide range of social and recreational activities at our beautiful facilities on the shores of Sarasota Bay.

A marina with a private boat ramp along with a recreation hall are available to our residents at reduced rates.

The beautiful renovated hall is great for weddings, anniversaries, graduations, birthdays and other celebrations and has a capacity of 224. 

Non-Bayshore Gardens residents may rent a boat slip or the recreation hall for events.

There are clubs to suit almost every interest including the Yacht Club, Garden Club, Woodchoppers Club, and other activities.

We are conveniently located on Sarasota Bay in Manatee County between Bradenton and Sarasota and approximately 2 miles north of the Sarasota–Bradenton International Airport.
