In general, Florida is a great place to retire. That’s why over 4 million retirees have already made the choice. Depending on the kind of pastimes you like, you may wish to live closer to the coast, rather than inland. Golf courses are everywhere, regardless. But if beaches and fishing are your passion, you can’t beat living by the ocean.
Specifically, let’s look at retirement in Kensington Park, FL and surrounding areas. With all there is to do and see, you’ll be glad – as a retiree – you no longer have to spend time slaving away in the workaday world. That leaves far more time for enjoyment. The following are things to do in and around Kensington Park, FL.
Hungry? How About a Cheesesteak?
On Sarasota’s Tamiami Trail, the 4.5 out of 5 stars Gentile’s Authentic Cheesesteaks eatery can be found. If you thought you had to travel all the way to Philadelphia for an outstanding cheesesteak, you were mistaken. This place scores high points for atmosphere, value, service, and food. It provides table service, is wheelchair accessible, has a parking area, and serves dinner and lunch. Takeout and delivery are also an option.
Prefer a Little Wine With Your Meal?
In Sarasota, on Fruitville Commons Boulevard, you’ll find Cooper’s Hawk Winery and Restaurant. Here, a wine tasting room accompanies American cuisine. The chicken piccata comes highly recommended, as does the s’mores dessert. This location offers a full bar, outdoor seating, and also provides take-out and delivery options. There is a private lot and street parking available, happy hour specials, and free Wi-Fi.
Experience Mother Nature
Marie Selby Botanical Gardens provides the perfect opportunity to experience Mother Nature for all she’s worth. It is located on Palm Ave. in Sarasota, and open seven days a week. The atmosphere is magical, with an added bonus of scattered artwork all around. Depending on how long you linger, you may want to plan on about two hours for your visit. Bring the grandkids if you like because there’s a treehouse, playground, and more.
Everybody Loves the Circus
Southwest Florida presents outstanding circus arts and creativity across a multitude of circus productions, courtesy of Circus Sarasota. Around the globe, the professional performers of Circus Sarasota have been acclaimed for world-class artistry. Whether it’s an intimate historic theater, the unique Sailor Circus arena, or the European-style, one-ring big top, you’ll experience the best in classic circus entertainment.
