The Saint Pete beach, Madeira, or Treasure Island beach communities are a great place to live. There are so many things to do and places to go, it never gets boring.

No matter in which one of these beach little beach towns you live, they are all very easy. Relaxed and laid back. We all have beautiful beaches, gorgeous sunrises and incredible sunsets. What the locals call the “South Beaches” of Pinellas County is everything south of the Clearwater / Sand key bridge to the Skyway Bridge. A bunch of little beach communities like Saint Pete beach and Treasure Island, also Madeira beach and Redington or Indian Rocks.

You can get on Gulf Blvd and drive through all of them within 30 minutes. All of these barrier islands have access to the Intracoastal waterway, Boca Ciega bay and of course the Gulf of Mexico. What I like most about places like Treasure Island and St. Pete beach and Madeira is that their have “naturally grown” and were not invented by a developer on a drawing board. I think this fact make for a lot of the charm we have here in the Saint Petersburg area.

We have single family homes next to condos, next to hotels. In our out of the tourist season, the South beaches manage to balance a nice crowd of people and still preserve the character of our little beach communities. Let me point out some special paces like Sunset beach. It is a very diverse community with lots of old little beach shacks as well as modern new construction condos and resort style rental apartments.

Sunset beach is the ultimate beach living. It has positive energy and artsy feeling. The locals here in Sunset beach are very creative, you will find all kinds of “wild” mailboxes and other things displayed in their front yard. Caddy’s Waterfront restaurant is a unique place in Treasure Island, you have to go there for a drink or something to eat and enjoy the beautiful beach. John’s Pass, another special place here in Pinellas County is a lot of fun for everybody. A lot of little shops, stores and souvenir places, ice-cream parlors, restaurant and bars.

The best thing about John’s Pass is the boardwalk. Make sure you take a stroll along the waterfront and watch the boats go in and out of John’s Pass. If you are in the mood for Parasailing, fishing, jet skiing or rent a boat, John’s Pass is the place to go. Let me not forget to mention Pass a Grille. It is the end of Saint Pete beach south of the Don Cesar hotel. Pass a grille has a lot of history and walking around you can feel and see it. Some nice restaurants in our area are the Black Perl in Pass a Grille, The Wine Cellar in Redington, The Gulf Bistro in Madeira beach, the Perl in Treasure Island.
