From US 41, go west on Siesta Drive, over the North Bridge onto Siesta Key. The road will curve left and turn into Higel. After the intersection with Midnight Pass Road, make the sharp RH turn at the small roundabout and the road changes into Ocean Blvd. Whispering Sands is about a mile on your right, on the Gulf side of the Key. Enter, turn left at first stop sign. Follow the road all the way toward the Gulf. The South Tower building is the one on your left as you face the Gulf.
