With its gently sloping sands, this island's geographic features contribute to the area's excellent fishing, as well as its reputation as one of the best and quietest beaches in the world. The intracoastal waterway is literally your backyard, with bayside deep water boat docks that allow easy access to the gulf.
Nokomis Beach on the south end covers 20 acres of prime fishing area and it offers a public boat ramp to get you out in the middle of the action. Shoreside activities on Casey Key include shark tooth hunting, shell collecting, and simply soaking up the sun and scenery.

The Sarasota Sportfishing Anglers Tarpon Tournament has been held every spring since 1930.
