Sarasota Bay & John Ringling Causeway

avatar
@marinagoritsas
The Sarasota Bay, aglow with the last golden rays of a Floridian sunset, presents a breathtaking scene of serenity. The John Ringling Causeway stretches across the bay, a ribbon of connection between the bustling life of Sarasota and the tranquil shores of Lido Key. From the perfect vantage point of Bayfront Park, the marina's boats and yachts lie anchored, a testament to the nautical heart of the city. The skies above, painted in vibrant shades of orange, pink, and purple, promise a spectacular evening—a spectacular sight for both the avid photographer and the casual observer.
