This Underrated Florida Beach Is A Crowd-Free Gem, Unlike Its Neighbors

VACATIONS
For an escape from the bustle of St. Petersburg, visit the nearby Pass-a-Grille. It's a small, picturesque beach town whose soft beach is unencumbered by heavy foot traffic.
Pass-a-Grille captures St. Pete's idyllic beauty without the crowds. Even when it draws more tourists during peak season, the beach is long and offers enough space to spread out.
While you'll likely spend the bulk of your time lounging beachside, you can also rent a speedboat, go deep-sea fishing, do beach yoga, and listen to live music.
The neighborhood features a small stretch of stores and eateries like the burger joint The Brass Monkey. Travelers can stay nearby at The Don Cesar or Island's End Resort.
