Capturing the very essence of Siesta Key’s laid back beachy island life, the Island Trader is a trendsetting beach boutique selling a range of informal clothing with chic style. Racks are hung with cool beach tops, colorful T-shirts, beach shorts, loose cotton shirts, hats, and accessories and many of them have a very Florida theme. Flamingos, dolphins, marlin, sailing boats, and seashells all find their way into this stylish boutique, decorating the cool fabrics, funky tops, jewelry, and beach clothing on display.
You’ll find your favorite sports and beach brand clothing here, such as Surf Gypsy, Elan, Pelagie, Guy Harvey, Columbia, and Southern Tide, and you’ll probably find new names that are destined to become firm favorites too.
Sister Boutique to Beach Bazaar on Siesta Key
You can almost smell the seashore from Island Trader, which is located in a charming courtyard setting on Ocean Boulevard in Siesta Key Village. The store was purchased by the owner of Beach Bazaar and remodeled in 2015 to create the current shabby chic atmosphere for this cute boutique and beachwear store.
Beach Bazaar operates across the street and specializes in brand name sandals, swimwear, and sunglasses, as well as a plethora of beach accessories, toys, and souvenirs. Between the two neighboring boutiques you’ll have everything covered.
