Holidays to St Pete Beach

While you’re likely to spend most of your holidays to St. Pete beach sunning yourself on the shore, there are plenty of attractions to experience if you can tear yourself away from the sand.

Culture vultures should put the Salvador Dali Museum, which tops the must-visit list. Located in downtown St. Petersburg, just a short jaunt away from St. Pete Beach, it houses an excellent collection of the artist’s works. Afterwards, take a walking tour of St. Pete and discover the vibrant murals that appear on the street.

The hustle and bustle of Pier 60 is well worth a visit, if only for its gorgeous views and old Florida charm. There are playgrounds for the children to enjoy alongside the opportunity to try your hand at fishing. Don’t fancy it? Simply enjoy the view over the Gulf Coast with a drink in hand at the on-site bar. Keen foodies will love what’s on the menu after dark, when the pier becomes the place to be for delicious beach-style seafood restaurants. Make your visit in October and you’ll even be lucky enough to full up on delicious food and music at the Clearwater Jazz Holiday and John’s Pass Seafood festival – yum!

Whether you’re seeking a romantic retreat or time with the little ones, there’s something to suit you on holiday in St. Pete Beach. Take a leisurely drive over the Dunedin causeway towards Honeymoon Island. Romantically named, this destination is an ideal place to visit for couples – especially if you’ve just got married! If you fancy lurking around until it’s nearly dark, there’s a fantastic sunset to be seen too.

Alternatively, take the family to Treasure Island Beach. While the name alone might conjure up images of pirates, there’s none to be found here. Instead, embrace your inner adrenaline-seeker and get active with snorkelling, water-skiing and parasailing along the waterfront. For those that would rather relax over a drink, why not make use of the world’s longest waterfront bar? Perfect if you’re in the mood for a cocktail or two!
