GULF COAST BEACHES

With varied cultural offerings, water recreation opportunities and savory Spanish and Cuban-influenced cuisine, the gulf coast beaches rate among the best in the nation.
Naturally, the pristine beaches offer swimming, water skiing, diving, sailing, parasailing, shelling—just about everything you can imagine in the sparkling waters of the Gulf.
The coastal area’s cultural menu is world class from the Salvador Dali Art Museum to the renowned Florida International Museum—from 5-star restaurants to sunset picnics overlooking the emerald waters of Boca Ciega Bay. There are also beautiful bike trails, tennis courts, golf courses and more for the active sportsperson. |
