Experiences

Lido is among the State’s top-rated beaches. Scenic views of the Gulf of Mexico and “sugar” sand beaches make this a popular destination. If bird watching is your favorite hobby, this is a good spot to see many Florida species. Fish, swim or picnic – with so much to do and see it’s no wonder this is usually a busy location. Shops and restaurants are just down the street on St. Armands Circle.
