St Pete Beach

St Pete Beach Information

Long a favourite haunt of sun-starved Brits, easy-going St Pete Beach offers a mix of budget and first-class beach hotels alongside some excellent, family-friendly attractions. Animal lovers will enjoy the Suncoast Seabird Sanctuary, where injured seabirds are nursed back to health. The beach itself is as splendid as you might expect but for something just that bit more exquisite, head to Fort De Soto State Park, whose spectacular beach frequently appears in the Top 3 listings for America’s Best Beach.
Nightlife is very low-key here so if you fancy something a little more upbeat head to Downtown St Petersburg, it’s less than a 20 minute ride away by taxi. There is an array of international cuisine to choose from and you can dance the night away in some of the top lounge bars and clubs. Downtown St Petersburg is the county’s best kept secret, as celebrities such as Paris Hilton have been known to drop in for an impromptu night out now and again! If you want to toast the Sunset why not hop aboard a dinner cruise or head down to one of the Beach Bars, or there are other bars and dining
choices at St Petersburg’s Baywalk. Or you can try your luck at the Seminole Hard Rock Casino, less than an hour’s drive away with over 3,200 slots and machines, restaurants, bars, and lounges.
