Cortez/Bradenton Beach Questions or Comments
Manatee County Beach Fun
You will know you are close once you cross over the Cortez Bridge, then you will start seeing the signs saying, "Charters, Boat Rentals, Beer & Food". The waterfront restaurants line the Gulf and the colorful beach shops line the bayside of the road. What a fun and unique beach community, located on the southern end of Anna Maria Island. The perfect area for a relaxing and spirited summer beach vacation. I sure hope us Bradenton residents know how good we have it.
