Known as Florida’s Beach, St. Pete Beach is famous for its 7 miles of powder-white sand on the Gulf of Mexico, from undeveloped, isolated island hideaways to wide, soft city beaches that offer all the amenities a beach-lover could imagine.
The gentle slopes and calm surfs make the area beaches perfect for family water activities. The Gulf offers every water activity imaginable, including deep-sea fishing, backwater salt flats fishing, boating, sailing, canoeing, sea kayaking, scuba diving, snorkeling, surfing and shelling.
The area’s public parks and nature trails are a showcase for Florida’s natural beauty. Fort Desoto Park is a 900-acre bird, animal and plant sanctuary with a stunning beach, fishing piers, playgrounds and hiking trails. Camping sites are also available with water and electricity hookups.
