About Us
Gulf Coast Lighting, Done Right
Island Lighting is a family-owned outdoor lighting company serving Sarasota, Venice, and Manatee County. We design, install, and maintain landscape lighting systems built from solid brass fixtures — the only material that holds up long-term in Florida's coastal environment.
Every project starts with a free on-site visit. We walk the property, understand what you're looking for, and show you exactly what the finished result will look like before any work begins.

The Material Difference
Built to Endure
Florida's Coast
In our salt-heavy coastal environment, aluminum and composite fixtures are temporary. They pit, flake, and fail within seasons. We exclusively utilize Professional-Grade Solid Cast Brass.
Lifetime Warranty
Solid brass doesn't rust or corrode. If a housing ever fails, we replace it for free—guaranteed for life.
Coastal Resilience
Our fixtures develop a natural patina that protects the metal from salt spray, only becoming more beautiful with time.
Precision Engineering
Internal silicone seals and moisture-tight sockets prevent the #1 cause of failure: coastal humidity.
The Process
How It Works

We walk your property at night to understand your vision and identify key focal points.
Precision Install
Our experts handle everything from core-drilling to stealth wiring with zero impact on your lawn.
Final Aiming
We return after dark for 'The Fine-Tune'—adjusting every beam to achieve the perfect glow.

Florida's salt air and coastal humidity destroy aluminum fixtures within a few seasons — they pit, corrode, and fail. Solid cast brass is naturally resilient, does not rust, and develops a beautiful protective patina over time. Every brass fixture we install is backed by a lifetime warranty.
The barrier islands across Sarasota and Manatee County — including Siesta Key, Longboat Key, Anna Maria Island, Holmes Beach, and Bradenton Beach — have strict ordinances protecting nesting sea turtles. We design with turtle-safe principles: low-voltage, downward-shielded fixtures using amber/warm wavelengths under 3000K. Your system will be beautiful and fully compliant.
