St. Pete Beach is a barrier island community stretched out along 4.5 miles of sandy beaches. Its permanent resident population of just over 10,000 nearly doubles during the winter months, making it one of the more popular tourism areas on the Suncoast.

As you might expect from a major tourist beach, you'll have no trouble finding something to do on the water. Just walk down the beach and you'll find waverunner rentals, scuba diving, fishing and parasailing.
