The shops at John's Pass Village are full of unique items, in addition to the usual tourist "junk." Caribbean Jubilee is a delightful little shop full of unique treasures and the owner is a very nice gentleman! Windworks has an amazing display of wind chimes, flags, windsocks and all things "wind!" Also has many, many landscaping ornaments. Things, Etc. has... more

My sister and I love to shop. This was the perfect place for us. They had shops with souveniers, but also other types of shop that were great. They had boutiques with super unique things. Awesome place to take a stroll, shop and even eat or have a snack. more

We just returned from a visit to Clearwater Beach. Since we have visited several times before, we were looking for something different to do. We had heard about John's Pass and thought it might be something we might enjoy. We took the Suncoast Trolley from the Beach. After a 30 minute drive, we arrived right at the Boardwalk. What a... more

John's Pass was so much fun and a great place to go in case of rain as most everything is covered. BUT - watch out for the CRAZY HUNGRY SEA GULLS! My family bought 4 very expensive yogurt type sugar cones. 3 of us got orange swirl and my husband got the strawberry. No sooner had we walked away from... more

This is a great place to shop if your in the area. Most of the shops contain souvenirs, t-shirts, candles, and little knicknacks. We spent a few hours going in and out of the shops and bought quite a bit. Definitely a must do if your in the area!!! more

We went there twice during our week long stay. There's a nice selection of shops that have a large variety of items. It's worth the drive down Gulf Blvd. Didn't eat at any of the restaurants there, but did go across bridge to Gator's. Great food, great price and great service! Had frozen yogurt that was delicious at John's Pass.... more

The shops were nice, just like you would expect Florida souvenir shops to be. Some were the big chain shops seen all over Florida, some were the little mom and pops, nice variety of different gift shops and ice cream parlors / snack shops. There were a few bars and restaurants near the water, one had a huge deck overlooking... more

I have family in Madeira Beach so we had a place to stay one block from John's Pass. We have been going there for years and I love watching it and the area around grow. John's Pass has something for the whole family. We went Parasailing and it was a blast. We all bought new suits and the shops there... more

John's Pass is an old fishing village that now caters as much to tourists as to those who fish. There are lots of shops and a variety of restaurants. We ate at the Hut and found the food to be good but the service was slow. It is worth visiting John's Pass even if you don't want to shop just... more
