Set on the shimmering Gulf of Mexico with Tampa Bay to the east and Boca Ciega Bay to the west, St. Petersburg is known for its unbelievable 361 days of yearly sunshine, guaranteed to banish the winter blues. The walkable, thriving downtown vibrates with the energy of edgy street murals and world-class museums dedicated to Salvador Dali, Western art, Chihuly glass, and more. Polished and modern galleries, cafés, award-winning restaurants, and sexy rooftop lounges buzz with activity, just a stone’s throw from sleek, amenity-rich condo towers rising in the sky. This is city living at its best—a burgeoning and surprising, always evolving urban oasis.
Creative, yet still traditional, St. Pete is also home to the iconic Vinoy and Don CeSar hotels. From the historic Old Northeast and Shore Acres enclaves to the chic and emerging Downtown Central, aspirational residents are drawn to unique, Old Florida charm enlivened by classy, updated resort style that makes this coastal city both timeless and new.
St. Pete Beach is about 12 miles from Downtown and a world apart. Starting the day walking miles of soft sand lapped by warm, emerald-green water can be totally chill, with watersports, casual drinking and dining, and the swanky Don CeSar Hotel available for more active pursuits. Following this tranquil, beachy escape, big city attractions lie minutes away.
Residents are justifiably proud of their public spaces, such as Vinoy Park and the redesigned St. Pete Pier, both on Tampa Bay. Boasting 26 acres of stunning views, an open-air marketplace, food and drinks, a playground, bike paths, and outdoor concerts and festivals, the Pier is also near the eclectic museums and hot commercial corridor of Central Avenue. Global eateries, eclectic boutiques, artsy shops, craft breweries, and coffee houses abound, while the Jannus Live outdoor music venue and the American Stage Theatre Company are always on-trend. When the sun sets, the area pulses to the beat of a lively nightlife.
