Downtown St. Pete Beach Travel Guide

St. Petersburg - Clearwater

#LifeAtExpedia

St Pete beach is as close to paradise as I have found. My family and I enjoy the CLEAN soft sandy beaches. We can be found making sand castles and burying each other in the sand. We also enjoy combing for treasures. Be it catching a glimpse of a dolphin or manatee, adding to our shell collection. When there hasn't been a storm the water is so clear you can even see the fish swimming around your feet. Be sure and due the "stingray shuffle" though as ocean is there home and they are very common here. Also don't forget to  apply sunscreen hourly while having fun!

Oh Nom! for whatever reason the dining room was empty when we walked in. The ambiance & service was charming enough (I particularly enjoyed them showing "Teen Wolf") & the sushi rolls were a great value--the veggie rolls are to be missed but hey we are in the south-->it's always a gamble when your vegetarian appetizer isn't fried :)
