Beaches & Adventure Insider

Lauren Tjaden

Hang gliding is my passion, and in 2006, I helped the U.S. Women's Hang Gliding Team win silver in the World Championships. An author, ultimate adventure lover, beach bunny and sand snob, I've visited almost every beach in Florida and can't wait to explore more. Join me as I flip-flop across the Sunshine State, sharing the softest sand, sweetest shores and a boatload of adventure.

Dig out your suntan lotion and prepare to get some sand between your toes!

The fourth of July weekend in Sarasota promises to be a blast, since the sun-kissed city will be celebrating the Silver anniversary of the Suncoast Super Boat Grand Prix with booming fireworks, blazing-fast boats and everything from a car show to a golf tournament to a fishing contest and more. The gravy on the potatoes is that you’ll be snuggled up next to those beautiful Sarasota beaches. The Festival runs June 27-July 5, 2009.
