First time visiting this market, and there are good and bad…read more Good: there is plenty of parking The hours of the market are later until 4 pm so coming from a far, I can still catch this market. The market is three days - Wednesday, Friday, & Sunday - 10-4 The market is beside Coquina Beach so you can see the beach and market all in one place. There is a few food/snack options like cookies, desserts, guacamole, conch salad to name a few off of my head. They also have a tea vendor and a coconut juice vendor. Everyone is very nice and eager to sell their goodies - lots of beach items, jewelry, candles, crafty items, beach toys, beach clothing and accessories to name a few! Bad: really weird location at the end of Coquina Beach - if you get to the bridge to Long Boat Key, you are too far Traffic is horrendous getting out because the LongBoat Key Bridge goes up anytime a boat passes, and that makes a lot of traffic all throughout the day. This market is not dog friendly, but we do see small dogs. We put our dog in his wagon so he was not on the pavement. The vendors do not seem as plentiful as they list. Perhaps the market vendors depend on the day since the market is 3 days. Glad that I did see this market since I visit so many all over. It's definitely something to see if you are in the area. Perhaps you will find something that makes a great souvenir from Anna Maria Island and that is definitely priceless! PS. This is not a farmers market. It's more of a crafty and artisan market with a beach theme!

The Coquina used to be a great place before Manatee County government took it over and ruined it…read more Before 2022 the market had about four times as many vendors. I spoke with vendors who have told me that the county increased the booth prices which made it cost prohibitive for a lot of vendors, and the venders that remain have to increase their prices. There also used to be a lot of food vendors and fruit and vegetable vendors. No more...thanks to Manatee County. The reason it gets two stars is because the vendors are courteous and nice. Wish the government would keep out of it!

This is way too small of a grocery store for how much this island has expanded. You can go to this grocery store at 7:45 in the morning and the parking lot is completely full. Not to mention that you can't even fit your carts down the same lane for two-way traffic. If Anne Mariah Island could do one thing better, it would be expanding on this grocery store. As well as the parking lot.

The employees behind the counter were happy and asked us if we wanted any samples and helped us make our decisions .

Great little spot with delicious ice cream!
