I can’t believe the end of summer is just around the corner and while a lot of you (including myself) are dreading the onset of cold weather, I am looking forward to the end of this summer for one reason – I’m going to St. Pete Beach! End of summer trips aren’t new for us. Every year we take off somewhere, almost always where the in-laws have set up camp, and then take the week before Labor Day off and don’t head home until the day...

Last week the Tampa Bay Times released their list of the top 10 beach bars in Tampa Bay for the summer and since it’s actually the first full day of summer (summer officially began yesterday around 12:30 Eastern time), I thought today would be as good a day as any to go over the list. Plus, the list is dominated by beach bars in the St. Pete Beach area and seeing as how this summer is going to end with a plethora of St. Pete...

Two months ago, I shared an article that cast some doubt on the future status of Caddy’s on the Beach, located on Treasure Island, Florida, just north of St. Pete Beach. The article not only brought up the possibility that Caddy’s on the Beach might close but that it might disappear completely, with the state taking over the property, razing the structures and turning it into a park.

One of those places is St. Pete Beach. My love affair with St. Pete Beach began as soon as I realized how many...

The title of Florida’s longest running beach bar may soon be exchanging hands as Caddy’s on the Beach, located on Sunset Beach in Treasure Island, Florida, nears a conclusion to its long running battle with the state of Florida over who actually owns the beach Caddy’s sits on. In a dispute that’s been ongoing for the last 10 years, the state may have finally reached a point where they’re willing to buy...

The St. Pete Beach area keeps drawing me back, especially as the amount of snow coating my driveway rises (total snowfall so far is 14 inches in case you were wondering). The latest object of my affection is the Hurricane Seafood Restaurant, located in the Pass-A-Grille area of St. Pete Beach. Consisting of three levels, the complex offers casual family dining on its ground level at the “Original Hurricane,” formal dining...
