Off the western coast of Florida, Fort De Soto Park is a picturesque set of five islands with an intriguing military history.

With Downtown St. Petersburg clearly visible, Vinoy Park is ideally situated to relax in the ocean breezes and enjoy its entertainment scene.

Prepare for a day of family-friendly adventures on and out of the water at Sand Key Park. This 95-acre (38-hectare) park occupies the northern section of Sand Key barrier island.

From fishing to being entertained and watching sunsets, a visit to Pier 60 Park in Clearwater Beach is a great way to enjoy Florida’s famous attractions: shoreline, ocean, and activities. The focus of the park is a 1,080-foot-long (329-meter) fishing pier that juts out into the Gulf of Mexico. From sunrise to late evening, cast your line from the pier with many others and take advantage of strong lights on the structure that attract fish after the sun goes down.
