    We happened upon this wonderful little dog park and beach by accident. What a wonderful surprise!!! My wife is a serious sheller, and dubbed this little spit of sand the best shelling beach she has ever visited. We both enjoyed the dogs frolicking in the water. We met many very friendly local residents. Planned on stopping for a few minutes. Ended up staying a few hours!

    Beautiful. Wide. Powdery sand. Shellers dream. Gorgeous views. All of this was my first impression when I stepped onto St. Pete's Beach for the first time today. It was a chilly day. Many of the businesses are still closed from last fall's devastating hurricanes. We almost had the entire beach to ourselves. My wife was in shellers heaven. Pretty easy to see why this is often named one of the best beaches in the United States.

    Upham beach is a small area in St Pete and seemed to be popular either local surfers. We stayed in a condo right on the beach and got to see the surfers daily which was a bonus! Paradise Grille is right on the beach and has amazing food got your beach day! Chairs are available to rent and it is a great beach for walks and sunsets! Lots of other restaurants within walking distance.

    Wanted to go fishing when we were down here on the Gulf coast with our kids and didn’t want to charter a boat so popped over here for a few hours to fish off the pier. Store was great hooked us up with poles and live shrimp bait. Got some small red snapper and a black grouper. Lots of fun would recommend anyone in town.

    The Dolphin Shopping Center was so convenient while staying at the nearby Sirata we must have made 2 or 3 stops at the Publix and the Dollar Store. We also had a late lunch at the Chick-fil-A on check in day. There is a CVS, a few other restaurants, UPS store, Swim N Play and a few more. The shopping center comes in handy having the only grocery store on the island.

    Floating Water Park is a great entertainment - and a proper exercise - on the beach, if you are up to it.

    It's all anchored at the Tradewinds Island Grand at St. Pete Beach, and it also advertises all kinds of water activities they offer. The offer for using Floating Water Park has a reasonable fee - per person, per hour. There are proper safety requirements - life jackets are a must, plus the certified lifeguards are on duty.

    Floating Water Park is located about 60 feet of the shore line, and it includes slides, climbing rafts, inflatable loungers, splash mats and runways, trampolines, and also a balance beam (for groups to compete).

    There's also a huge Freestyle Slide there, but this one is on the beach.

    As for Floating Water Park, it is closed from January through mid-March, then it has scheduled hours and days. And of course, its operation highly depends on the weather and water conditions.

    Lately, this water park looks somewhat smaller than it used to be. Not sure, how this is explained - the economics of demand and supply, I gather.

    A great facility fronting the waterfront. Greatly enhanced each autumn by the quality bands and the work of the local fire service supporting this open air venue. For visitors like us it's one of the reasons we come back to St Pete Beach each year.

    I had a pleasant surprise finding this little gem full of affordable ORIGINAL art from top artisans in the United States. Yvonne and her staff have done a great job curating a delightful collection and I am happy to say I added a new piece to my collection! Bravo! I will definitely return.

    Newly renovated, it's a beautiful space with great people and programs. Walk the labyrinth, check out the book studies, see sermons and worship services online, take a yoga class. etc. Great event space for weddings and other community events. pagchurch.org.
