5 Unbeatable Benefits of Renting a Golf Cart on Anna Maria Island

Effortless Island Exploration

Anna Maria Island spans just 7 miles, making it the perfect size for golf cart adventures. Unlike cars, golf carts let you easily pull over for impromptu beach stops, photo opportunities, or to grab a quick ice cream. With a golf cart rental, you’ll discover hidden gems that most tourists miss while stuck in car traffic or exhausted from walking.

Stress-Free Parking

During peak season, finding parking on Anna Maria Island can be challenging. Golf carts solve this problem with their compact size, allowing you to slip into small spaces that cars can’t access. Many local businesses even offer designated golf cart parking, saving you time and frustration while exploring the island’s attractions.

Authentic Island Experience

Want to live like a local? Islanders prefer golf carts for their daily transportation. The open-air design connects you with the island’s natural beauty—feel the ocean breeze, smell the salt air, and soak in the sunshine as you cruise along scenic routes. It’s an immersive experience that enclosed vehicles simply can’t match.

Eco-Friendly Transportation

Anna Maria Island prides itself on preserving its natural beauty. By choosing a golf cart, you’re making an environmentally conscious choice. Gas-powered carts from Coconut Rentals are fuel-efficient with minimal emissions compared to standard vehicles, helping protect the island’s delicate ecosystem while still providing reliable transportation.

Family-Friendly Fun

Kids absolutely love riding in golf carts! The novelty creates instant vacation memories as children enjoy the open-air ride. With 4 and 6-passenger options available, there’s room for the whole family plus beach gear. The slow pace and side-by-side seating encourage conversation and connection—something often missing during hectic vacations.

Cost-Effective Convenience

Renting a golf cart is surprisingly affordable compared to other transportation options. You’ll save on multiple car rentals, rideshares, or taxis while gaining the freedom to explore at your own pace. With free delivery and pickup included, you’re getting exceptional value for a transportation option that enhances your entire vacation experience.

Essential Tips for First-Time Golf Cart Renters on Anna Maria Island

Know the Rules

Street-legal golf carts can operate on any road with a speed limit of 35 mph or less, which includes all of Anna Maria Island. Always wear seatbelts, observe traffic laws, and never drive on beaches, sidewalks, or bike paths. Children under 5 must be in appropriate car seats, just like in regular vehicles.

Parking Guidelines

Golf carts can park in regular parking spaces or designated golf cart parking areas. Many restaurants and shops offer special golf cart parking. Never block walkways or emergency access points. When parking at the beach, use designated public access parking areas.

Plan Your Routes

Gulf Drive runs the length of the island and is perfect for golf cart travel. Pine Avenue in Anna Maria and Bridge Street in Bradenton Beach offer charming shopping and dining. For the best sunset views, head to Bean Point or Coquina Beach in your cart before dusk.

Pro Tip: Book Your Golf Cart Early!

Anna Maria Island golf cart rentals often sell out weeks in advance, especially during peak season (December-April). Secure your reservation as soon as you book your accommodation to avoid disappointment.
