Access to Bradenton Beach is tricky and the shoals move frequently.  Mariners without local knowledge should not attempt entry.  A narrow channel from the Gulf at the south end of Anna Maria Island features rapid currents and a narrow single leaf drawbridge.  After approaching the drawbridge from the Gulf, you will find a wide sandbar unless you make a hard left or hard right which puts you perpendicular to the fast floor or ebb flow!  Good Luck
