There are tennis courts just at the end of 62nd street in Holmes Beach. Actually the courts are just 6 homes from the Island Real Estate office. There are three public tennis courts and generally it is based on first come first serve. The fence is ample height to retain most errand tennis balls. One fabulous feature is the night lights that are activated by hitting a small button as you walk into the tennis court.

Personal fitness training on Anna Maria Island ~ relax and get fit all on Anna Maria
October 30, 2008 by 1 Comment
Relax, your on an Anna Maria Island Vacation. Most relax on the beach but it is always a great time to get back in the “saddle” again to get your physical activity on the right track. Walking or jogging the beach is a favorite past-time but another option that most don’t consider is a personal trainer.
