Parks & Nature
Lovingly maintained by residents of Envoy Point, this "secret" garden is a private walkway through a tropical garden leading from the pristine beach. As Envoy Point is at the very northern tip of St. Pete Beach, the beachfront ends here at a rock jetty that is a favorite haunt of fishing enthusiasts.
Park at the north end of Upham beach, walk over the boardwalk to the beach and to the right. Go all the way to the rock jetty and turn right again. Beware of high tide though, you may get stuck there.
Sunset is popular from the many nestled bistro tables and we've seen couple having romantic picnics with wine*, cheese, crackers, etc.
(*Not sure about the legalities of wine on the beach!)

Our local beach has white powdery sand, a concession stand and public bathrooms - everything you want in an awesome beach. Upham Beach is the closest public beach access to Corey Avenue. It provides a reprieve from the tall hotels and condominiums on other parts of the beach.
Upham has 4 wooden dune walkovers that lead from the long, narrow, pay and park lot, across the dunes to a very wide, white sandy beach. A short walk north takes you to Blind Pass, which has a rock jetty. This is a great place to watch the sunset. Dolphins often make an appearance and I've seen them put on quite a show of jumping out of the water.

The city of St. Pete. Beach has events here quite often, and when they do it's always a fun, safe, family friendly and awesome experience.

Whether you sit on the beach or kayak near the still water's edge at Fort De Soto, you find yourself absorbed in the abundance of natural beauty for as far as the eye can see. Fort De Soto park consists of 1,136 acres made up of five interconnected islands (keys). These keys are home to beach plants, mangroves, wetlands, palm hammocks, hardwoods and scores of native plants as well as more than 328 species of birds.

This is a very beautiful park with a beautiful covered area for picnics and barbeques. It has a super playground for young children with lots of fun activities. It also has a great dog park. There is also a dock where sometimes you will see people trying their luck at catching that big fish. Or you can just have a seat on the park bench and watch the boats go by. Very beautiful and well kept park and only a few blocks away.

If you like visiting kitschy, retro, vintage places that transport you back in time - then this mini-golf course is it. It's breaking down, trapped in time and tiny but WHO CARES? It's the experience of enjoying the flashback into the past. Yes, there are much more modern, bigger and awesomer putt-putt courses on Madeira and further north - but this is about supporting an old local business and showing your kids what entertainment used to be when you were a kid. Go and have fun!
