Pirate Adventures of Cortez

4110 127th St W Cortez, Bradenton, Fl 34215

As we face the pending end of summer for the kids in our lives, consider booking a small group party with Pirate Adventures of Cortez. Set sail on the boat and allow the imagination to take you to far off places. This amazing adventure for the whole family will be welcome break from quarantining. They do have precautions in place for social distancing, so please check out their Facebook page or call them today for more information.

Corwin’s Ice Cream and Smoothies

Corwin’s Ice Cream and Smoothies
1000 1st Ave W, Bradenton, FL 34205

Is there anything better on a blistering hot day than ice cream? Whether you are trying to keep it healthy with a hearty smoothie, or craving a decadent brownie sundae Corwin’s has something for everyone. Walk on in today, and then take a stroll along the Bradenton Riverwalk afterward or just take in the sunset. Social distancing of course does make limited seating available, but all ice cream packaged to go – so go get a cold treat today!

Pier 60 (Clearwater Beach, Florida)

Pier 60 (Clearwater Beach, Florida)
1 Causeway Blvd, Clearwater, FL 33767

If you are looking for a wonderful day out with family this coming weekend, before the rigors of school start-up just a short drive up the road to Clearwater Beach might be the staycation you need. What’s On is gorgeous waterways, fantastic sand and Pier 60 make for a great day of sun, surf, and family time. Remember to try and arrive early, wear a mask in places where groups gather and keep a respectful distance of 6 feet from those on the beach. We can enjoy these gorgeous beaches at sunrise or sunset, for an even added level of comfort when crowds dissipate – and those sun events are so worth seeing!

Mad Dogs

2059 S. Tamiami Trail, Venice, FL 34293

Yes, this summer has been significantly different then years past. While you can’t travel home to visit or explore new states right now – Mad Dogs might be the next best thing. They pride themselves on styling their hot dogs to match the tastebuds of states, locales, and unique requests every day. Order ahead and make a summer picnic of Mad Dog creations this weekend. or any day you need a little pep in your step remembering that hot dog from baseball games, street vendors, or other memories of the past.

Oaks Park

Oaks Park
5430 Mandrake Terrace, North Port, FL 34291

This park located in North Port is a What’s On Suncoast little known gem to enjoy with your family. This dog-friendly, seventeen-acre park is peppered with amazing old oak trees. The shading from the trees keeps the walking trail shaded on even the sunniest days. This socially distanced activity allows for the kids to get out and run wild for a few hours, and you can take a picnic lunch and extend for a full day of fun outdoors in the beautiful Suncoast.
