Pass-a-Grille Beach

Named for 18th-century "grilleurs" who dried fish on these soft, sandy shores, Pass-a-Grille stretches along the southern end of St Pete Beach, encompassing 22 blocks, beginning at 22nd Ave and stretching to the end of the island. This quaint, laid back town is a true throwback to a kinder, gentler time and even has a designated National Historic District with a small historical museum showcasing the area's past to prove it. Several of the area's dining favorites are located across from this beach. It's also one of the best spots to catch the area's legendary sunset and a special ringing of the bell ritual is celebrated every night at Paradise Grille to honor it. When you've had enough of the sand and surf, take a walk around the area and visit some of the boutiques located here.

Location: 113 11th Ave, Pass-a-Grille Beach, FL 33706.
