RUMFISH BEACH RESORT BY TRADEWINDS St. Pete B ch VisitSPC.com/StPeteBeach • Gorgeous. Laid-back. Magical. All three adjectives (among many others) only begin to describe this exceptional beach town, which is famous for its nearly unparalleled sand and sunsets. Named the No. 1 Beach in the U.S. for 2021 by Tripadvisor (up from No. 2 in 2020) , St. Pete Beach offers a variety of travelers and retirees alike. It also offers a variety of places to stretch out for the night, from old-school Florida motels and inns to much posher hotels, including the iconic Pink Palace – The Don CeSar , the TradeWinds Island Resorts or the trendy retro-modern Postcard Inn . If you want to break away from the shore for a few hours, the lively Corey Avenue Shopping District shops, dining spots and galleries to explore and enjoy. In the evening, check out The Drunken Clam , a local favorite that serves up cocktails and fresh wings ’til the early morning hours, or sip on martinis at RumFish Grill as you lounge in the glow of an aquarium.
