Anna maria island bars on the beach

My husband and I are in our late thirties, and while we're not big, fat party animals, we would like the option of staying out past ten o'clock a night or two, and having some drinks.. Are there any restaurants/bars that fit this criteria? I've loved everything I've seen about Anna Maria so far, just can't find any info on this subject. Maybe that's a bad sign...

Anna Maria is definitely not South Beach, but nightlife certainly has improved in the past years. There are now some great bars to go. Try Slims Place, Feeling Swell, Martiniville,Hurricane Hanks. There are certainly more bars on the Island, however, you asked for Anna Maria. Anna Maria Island is divided into 3 cities. Anna Maria is on the very north end, Holmes Beach is in the middle and Bradenton Beach is in the south.
