The beach is nice but no public parking there. This is for people that live in the area.

Great parking spot! Found a spot around 5pm. Public acess 13 is closer to point of rocks. 12 is approximately 300 yards away.

Parking is almost impossible to get and if you are lucky enough you better stay all day and know how to manouver your car in small spaces. No restrooms close and no showers to spray off sand. Beautiful beach though

Honestly this is one of the most hidden gem spots. You get here at 6-8AM and you'll easily park. This is a few hundred yards from point of rocks which in my opinion is best spot to chill at.

One of the most underrated beaches on Earth.... 😁🌅🌞

Some of the most beautiful sunsets in the world and much more private than the main Siesta Key Beach. Below are some of the stunning sunsets we have captured during our stays and cannot wait to be back.

Parking here is both a treat and a frustration. It’s the southern most public parking on Siesta Key. You have a short 1/3 mile walk to Point of Rocks, and it’s a fun spot on the beach to explore. But waiting for spots can test your patience. Sometimes you wait 5-10 minutes. Other times you’ll wait 30+ for a spot. Overall, I think it’s worth the wait.

Very tight parking. Get here early if you want a spot. Being that there are only a few parking spots the beach doesn't get too busy. We definitely like being down here more then up north at the main beach. We stayed in a condo up the street so wished there were more beach accesses in between. Overall loved this beach and this access was good.
