Englewood

Englewood is located in southwest Florida and is shared by Sarasota and Charlotte counties. It enjoys direct access to the Gulf of Mexico, the Intracoastal Waterway, and a wide range of parks and nature areas. Residents and visitors can enjoy numerous beaches including Englewood Beach, Blind Pass, Stump Pass, and Manasota Beach on the 7-mile Manasota Key barrier island. Since its formation in 1896 by the Nichols brothers for the purpose of growing lemons, Englewood has developed into a lovely town for both residents and commercial interests.

Englewood Beach is the closest beach to Englewood itself, and offers great sunsets and the Gulf waters with the advantages of local parking, a boardwalk, picnic tables, changing facilities, restrooms, BBQ grills, and a playground. There are several popular restaurants and shops within easy walking distance of the beach. For those who prefer a park to the beach, we offer Stump Pass Beach Park with a boat ramp, canoeing, kayaking, hiking trail, and wildlife viewing. Lemon Bay Park and Nature Center offers trails, picnic areas, and a kayak launch. Indian Mound Park offers a nature trail and boat ramp. Manasota Beach Park offers a lifeguard station, free parking, showers, pavilions, and picnic areas. There are more parks to enjoy as well for recreation or enjoyment of nature.

Residents enjoy multiple schools in the area including both public and private elementary and middle schools, and Lemon Bay High School. Residents have access to our Public Library system for Charlotte County. There are many cultural activities available in the area, including chorus groups, community theater, movie theaters nearby in Venice or Port Charlotte, and so forth.
