Siesta Key Beach Swim/Walk, Part 1. Sarasota, Florida.
Siesta Key Beach in Sarasota, Florida was voted the #1 beach in the US for many years. Unlike most beaches that are made up mostly of pulverized coral, Siesta Beach's sand is 99% quartz, most of the quartz comes from the Appalachian Mountains. The quartz crystals have amazing healing powers. If you walk or lay down on the beach you will feel the healing affects of the quartz and leave the beach feeling rejuvenated and refreshed. This is Part 1, a series of several clips spliced together using Davinci Resolve 16 video editing software. I'm just experimenting with using this editor, cutting, adding music, etc. Please bear with me. hahahahaha! Part 2 will be published soon. Part 3 will be a walking tour of Siesta Key Village.

Siesta Key FL - From White Sands Village to Siesta Beach
Siesta Key, Florida USA #livingthedream
Siesta Beach (sometimes known as Siesta Key Beach) is a beach located on Siesta Key in the U.S. state of Florida. The sand is 99% pure quartz, soft and cool on the feet.
The many awards it has earned include:
* The whitest and finest sand in the world (The Great International Beach Challenge, 1987),
The Best Sand Beach in America (The Travel Channel, 2004),
The Best Beach in America (Dr. Beach, 2011, 2017)

Up until the 20th century, Siesta Key was virtually vacant and was referred to as Clam Island, Little Sarasota Island, or Sarasota Key. The Island was not connected to the city of Sarasota in any way, so the only way to get to and from the island was by boat. It had deep vegetation, snakes of all varieties (including all of the venomous ones found in the United States - rattlesnakes, copperheads, water moccasins and coral snakes), sand fleas, wildcats and wild boars.
It remained that way until 1906 when Mr. and Mrs. Roberts opened the Roberts’ (or Siesta) Inn. This hotel became very popular for people who wanted a place to escape the cold winters of the north. The Roberts’ Inn also attracted many people because of Mrs. Roberts’ cooking (specifically her seafood dishes). Mr. Roberts teamed up with Mayor Harry Higel to create the Siesta Land Company, which formed Siesta Village and renamed the island Siesta Key around a year after he opened his hotel. In 1914, Higel opened his own hotel called Higelhurst and used his boat to transfer guests to and from the city. Higel also worked to get the Army Corps Engineers to build a bridge that would connect the key with the city of Sarasota.
He was finally able to, and that bridge opened in 1917, which connected the northern part of the key with the city. In 1927, a second bridge opened at the southern end of the key on Stickney Point.
In 1954, Sarasota County first purchased property on the key for a public beach. Slowly, Siesta Key began to grow in population, and now around 350,000 tourists visit it every year.
In 1988, the movie Jaws 5 was filmed at Siesta Key Beach. Due to the abysmal sales of Jaws 4, Jaws 5 was never released.

RED TIDE at Siesta Key Beach, FL - UPDATE Aug 2018
Hey everyone. I’ve been in Sarasota, Florida on vacation for a few weeks now. A big attraction here in Sarasota is Siesta Key Beach. Over the last couple of weeks, the Red tide has appeared. Red tide is a phenomenon caused by algal blooms (Wikipedia definition) during which algae become so numerous that they discolor coastal waters (hence the name red tide). The algal bloom may also deplete oxygen in the waters and/or release toxins that may cause illness in humans and other animals. The Red tide must stop now! Although the Red tide may be a natural phenomenon, oils that are toxic to the marine life are being deposited into the ocean by companies. Innocent marine life are being killed! Beaches are supposed to be a safe, clean, and beautiful place. If the Red Tide continues, millions of more fish will perish and businesses will start to suffer. Siesta Beach tourism is key to many people’s businesses in Sarasota. To end the Red tide, you can help by spreading awareness, signing the petition, and by not polluting ! Right now, we have to wait it out. Thank you to all who have helped to spread awareness on this serious topic here in Florida.

thank you :)
