Lemon Bay Vacation Rentals, Homes, Condos, Villas and Beach Rentals

Lemon Bay is located on the southern Gulf Coast of Florida. The barrier islands of Manasota Key and Knight Island separate the Bay from the Gulf of Mexico, and the Intracoastal Waterway passes through the center of Lemon Bay. The small, beachfront town of Englewood sits right on Lemon Bay. Widely known as one of Florida’s best-kept secrets, the town of Englewood has four pristine beaches great for swimming, shelling, sunbathing, boating, fishing, and scuba diving, snorkeling or hiking along the ocean’s edge. The sun sparkles off turquoise Lemon Bay during the day and at dusk, the sunsets are unbelievable. The warm, tropical climate and off shore breezes make it a place you’ll want to return to time and again. Accommodations range from beachfront cottages and condominiums to hotels and motels. This is one place that has everything you’d expect in a Florida vacation, without the high prices and crowds. If you do get the urge for more excitement, easy day trips take you to Tampa Bay, Naples and Fort Myers. Disney World is a two and a half-hour drive from Lemon Bay and Miami is three hours away.

Lemon Bay Weather & Climate

The Southwest Region of Florida, between Sarasota and Fort Myers, has comfortable weather year round. At 5 to 25 feet above sea level, the region has a subtropic climate that is checked by the tempering influence of the Gulf of Mexico. The Peace River, as well as the Gulf of Mexico, contributes to the hot and humid climate in the summertime (but it's not unbearable due to cooling Gulf breezes.)Prevailing winds are normally 12-18 mph. The rainy season lasts from June through September, with rain spread fairly evenly throughout those months. Thunderstorms tend to pop up quickly but also dissipate just as quickly, with the sunshine quickly returning. The winters are lovely with warm afternoons and mild evenings and much less rain. Hurricane season generally runs late summer through late October in the Gulf of Mexico.
