Sun King Alpacas is located within the city of North Port, Florida, in the agriculturally zoned section called The Estates. North Port is one of the largest land cities in Florida but is only 10% populated. It encompasses fourteen miles of Interstate I-75 within its boundaries and occupies 103 square miles of Sarasota County. It has two international airports within 45 minutes, golfing, boating, horseback riding and canoeing. Fisherman's village, a 40-store specialty shopping mall built on old city fish docks, extends 1,000 feet into Charlotte Harbor. It has a pool, a 98-slip marina, charter fishing boats and other services. One can find tennis, several restaurants, lodging and even a circus (Circus Sarasota Professional one-ring Big Top) at varying locations in Sarasota throughout the year.
North Port even has a Wal-mart and a Home Depot. The near-by Ponce De Leon Fountain of Youth is also a popular attraction. The springs produce 9 million gallons of water at 87 degrees Fahrenheit daily. People come from all over the world for the healthful benefits of the mineral springs. There are also many excellent beaches to choose from within 45 minutes, some of the greatest fishing in the world, and Florida's greatest attraction, an average annual temperature of 76 degrees!
