Casey Key, Florida, is a barrier island that shares waterways with its neighbors, the Island of Venice to the south and Siesta Key to the north. An 8-mile stretch of protected paradise that borders both the Gulf and the bay, this quiet island is a residential enclave with minimal construction. There are no high-rises, no traffic jams and new zoning codes to maintain the pristine setting.

Well known for the North Jetty Park on the south end of the island, Casey Key provides some of the finest in fishing and beach recreation will a full-facility park that includes a bait & tackle shop. The Jetty itself extends out into the Gulf of Mexico where, around the clock, there are avid and novice fishing enthusiasts pulling fish otherwise unreachable except by boat. From the park, the view to the south is less than a hundred yards to the South Jetty on the north end of the Island of Venice. Both jetties offer magnificent places to enjoy the evening sunsets.

Hidden behind clusters of sea grapes and bougainvillea, the less than 400 residences enjoy privacy and serenity. Unassuming family compounds have traditionally dotted the island and newer construction has included more expansive Gulf-to-bay properties and a six-acre compound.

Due to the exclusivity and desirability of Casey Key, the number of properties that come to market is low. Development has been checked to preserve the natural wildlife sanctuaries and parks, and to keep the cozy feeling for which the island has come to be known.
