Review:
St. Pete Beach has been ranked as one of America's best family beach towns by Parent Magazine and TripAdvisor, known around the country as Florida's "Sunset Capital." The charming, relaxed beach town is located on a barrier island near St. Petersburg, offering a lively downtown district along Corey Avenue lined with eclectic boutiques, restaurants, and bars. The area receives an average of 361 sunny days per year, ensuring that any family vacation at any time of the year will offer perfect temperatures and calm, clear water conditions.
The Gulf Beaches Historical Museum showcases interesting exhibitions on the area's history, while the historic Don CeSar Hotel offers luxurious accommodations and grand architecture. Families can enjoy pirate-themed cruises aboard Captain Memo's Pirate Cruise or zip down three-story water slides at Tradewinds Island.
