Fort DeSoto State Park
Tip: Dog owners love the park's leash-free dog beach, dubbed the Paw Playground. Here, pups can join their owners for a paddle in the warm Gulf waters.
Beautiful Gulf Coast Weather Year Round :
The Saint Petersburg area beaches are some of the most beautiful in Florida. The waters of the beautiful Gulf of Mexico and white-sand are award winning combinations. Not only are the beaches beautiful, but there is so much to do and see in the area.
The average temperatures in Saint Petersburg during March and April are warm. The average daytime highs reach 74 to 80 degrees and the nighttime lows a pleasant 60 to 65 degrees. The average water temperature is a warm 71 to 79 degrees Fahrenheit.
Award Winning Beaches Fort DeSoto State Park:
Listed on Dr. Beach's 2005 list of best American beaches, few tourists make it to this stunning swath of sand.
Bay area locals, however, consider Fort DeSoto the best beach around. Come weekends, recreational boaters swarm within swimming distance of the sugary sands. Still, you can always find a private spot to sun on the wide beach itself.
Arriving by car, the island park conjures old, wild Florida, and you could get lost exploring the 900 acres of bike trails, beaches and nature walks. Fishermen toss nets into the mangrove shallows lining the road that runs through the park, and from atop the 105-year-old fort here the beach dunes below appear wild and untouched.
Leave the parking area at North Beach and emerge onto a completely natural beach prime for shelling, strolling or swimming in warm shallow waters. Most folks congregate by the water's edge, and a short stroll can lead you to a private piece of paradise.
All only a short drive from our vacation home!
