Hello
everyone!
I wanted to
share with you today the place where I had the best time of my life, and I
truly recommend it for those who want to have a romantic or a family weekend
getaway.
I went with
my husband on our honeymoon to Clearwater, a city located at the west coast of
Florida, and we had an incredible time there. There were so many things to see
and to do there that I wish
we have more time to explore it. One day we woke up early and decided to drive
around to get to know the area, so we took Gulf Blvd South (for us in South
Florida looks like A1A) and drove down the road for about an hour, enjoying the
amazing view, and we ended up by accident at the Fort De Soto Park.
I am so glad we did it, because this place is incredible and I truly recommend
it!
With
remarkable white sand beaches and great areas for picnics and barbecue, Fort
De Soto is an amazing place for you to spend an unforgettable weekend
and also enjoy fun activities such as kayaking, fishing, and bicycling. Moreover,
for those who like history, the walk around the fort is a great experience. The
fort is well preserved and it is definitely a learning experience for the whole
family. For those who like camping, there is a nice camping area that
accommodates travelers using tents as well as RV’s. This is a great experience
for families to have fun and enjoy a nice stay without getting bored. If you
are not a natural camper, like me, there are many hotels in
the area that can accommodate you and your family for a reasonable price.
Besides
everything I have listed, the view is amazing and the sunset is indescribable.
It is definitely an enchanted place, I can assure you. When we were swimming in
the ocean, we saw dolphins swimming about 6 feet away from us. We were
speechless by it and it was certainly a breathtaking moment.
The Park is
easily accessible and to obtain precise directions of how to get there just click here. If you prefer
to travel by plane, the closest airport is the St Petersburg-Clearwater international Airport.
Don’t even have to think twice, just book your ticket and go! Once you arrive
at the airport, I advise you to rent a car,
so you can better enjoy your vacation.
After a long
day spent at the park, there are still more things to see and to do around
there. The city of Saint Petersburg promotes many activities, such as street
festivals, as a way to maintain the community involved and to ensure their
visitors have a good time. One event you cannot miss is the First Friday St. Pete. The first
Friday of every month there is a street festival in Saint Petersburg, right
between 2nd and 3rd street, where they have
live bands performing and an extensive variety of food and drinks. And the best
of all, admission is Free! The party starts around 5:30 p.m. and goes until
10:00 p.m., and the whole family is welcome!
Although
the weather is nice all year round, the best time to visit the St
Pete-Clearwater area is from Mid-June till September. So don’t wait any longer,
start planning your next vacation and enjoy this breathtaking opportunity this
summer! You won’t regret it!
