About Bradenton...

Beautiful Bradenton, named after explorer Joseph Braden, is a historic community nestled snuggly along the southern shore of the Manatee River at the southern tip of Tampa Bay. The cities of Palmetto and Ellenton rest on the northern shore of the river. Visitors to the area can explore the many historical and cultural facilities to learn about the rich heritage of the area, spend the day cruising through the many outlet shops and boutiques, or putt around one of the many world-champion golf courses.

Whether your preference is a fun waterside activity, such as boating, fishing, sailing, parasailing, canoeing or kayaking, touring some of Bradenton’s historical or natural attractions and museums, such as the 1200 year-old temple mounds at Emerson Point, or delighting in the many treasures the area shops and boutiques have to offer, you’ll find the perfect getaway experience in the Bradenton area.

An open-air farmer’s market is held every Saturday along Bradenton’s historic cobblestone Main Street. So if you’re searching for a truly unique shopping experience, you can’t miss the Red Barn Flea Market & Plaza, which features more than 600 retail stores and flea-market style booths and is open Friday, Saturday and Sunday. For the full Florida experience, travel just an hour and half away to visit Disney World, MGM Studio, and Sea World.
