Welcome to Casey Key

Private, secure, and breathtakingly scenic, Casey Key is one of Florida's hidden gems. The 8-mile-long barrier reef island is nestled between Blackburn Bay and the Gulf of Mexico, just off Nokomis. It's named after Captain John Charles Casey and stretches from the Island of Venice to Siesta Key.
