St. Petersburg Beach has long been a resort destination (F. Scott and Zelda Fitzgerald came to stay at the fantasy pink, historic Don Cesar Resort) and if it’s fun in the sun you are after, St. Pete Beach and nearby Treasure Island will make for a memorable family vacation.
Beachfront restaurants, watersports and other fun activities line the miles of beachfront. And this is where you’ll want to spend your days, for the sun fails to shine only 4 days a year on average. Hop on the trolley which runs all the way from Clearwater Beach to Pass-A-Grille to find the many beach access points. Missing out on a visit to nearby Honeymoon Island and Caldesi Island would make your visit to this area incomplete. They are regularly on the list of best Gulf Coast beaches.
Historic Corey Avenue is the first stop for shopping at St. Pete Beach. Specialty shops, a theater, wonderful restaurants, art galleries, gift and craft shops, beachwear shops, and more can keep you occupied for an hour or all day! You’ll find many shell shops and Florida souvenirs along the main drag.
Parasailing, wave running, board sailing, and shelling and dolphin watching trips are family favorites while on vacation at St. Petersburg Beach. If you need a day out of the sun, visit St. Petersburg’s many family friendly attractions, such as Great Explorations-The Hands On Museum or the Pier Aquarium.
Dining at the beach means shoreside snacks, fish shacks and every ethnic cuisine you can think of. You won’t want to miss sharing your evening meal with one of the Florida’s spectacular Gulf sunsets!
