Things To Do
Best Walk in St. Pete
This stretches from Coffee Pot Park all the way to St. Pete Pier! I usually start around Flora Wylie Park and end at North Straub Park. Plus, this time of year, you may spot a manatee! The walk runs into a small small beach, beach volleyball, tons of open grass and benches, shades trees, bathrooms/water stations, etc.
St. Pete Pier
This is just here for the clout but it is a cool spot to walk to and get a view of the city.
Salt Shack On The Bay
We are actually Tampa people, not St. Pete! So, we do have many more recommendations on our side on the bay. Salt Shack is that chill place with 7/10 food but 10/10 vibes.
Patrona Coastal Cafe
This is basically the brunch version of Salt Shack
Hyde Park Village
The best shopping area right off of the Bay-to-Bay walking trail! AKA the pilates > iced coffee > hot girl walk pipeline Lot's of great restaurants here like On Swann, Meat Market, Bartaco, Sesame, and Forbici.
Central Avenue
This is a 600 block hub in St. Pete (it's great), so I'll just rattle off some of the hot places: Bar Mezzo Intermezzo Coffee & Cocktails Copa Copa Cafe In Between Days The Sourdough Company Bobbles and Lace Central Park (food hall) Shiso Crispy Bodega
Beaches
Pass-a-Grille Beach: laid-back, local, chill St. Pete Beach: restaurants, resorts, tourists, but not as crowded as Clearwater Treasure Island/Madeira Beach/Sunset Beach: I group these all into the same category because they basically run into each other. These are chill but not my favorites. Redington/Indian Rocks/Indian Shores: I love this one for a quiet beach day that actually has a bathroom and a parking lot. Imagine that. Clearwater Beach: This used to be my favorite, and I still think it's the most beautiful, but it can get packed to a point you won't find parking and the bridge will take an hour to get over.
