Fort De Soto Park

3500 Pinellas Bayway South, Tierra Verde, Florida 33715

Featured Review : Imagine the perfect public campground. Ft. Desoto is probably as close as you can come to making that image a reality. This park was likely created by a camper - and parks designed by campers suit campers extremely well!...See Full Review

Quote: OK, I lied. This was DEFINITELY my favorite beach. It was so warm and so beautiful, and I found the prettiest shells for my fish tank. I also took some amazing photos of the wildlife -- there were beautiful birds all over the place.

  • November 12, 2000
Quote: Both Pass-A-Grille and Fort DeSoto Park are located in the St. Pete's immediate area. First, Pass-A-Grille, less touristy beach, picturesque. Quaint houses just off the beach in this historic town. Try 'Hurricanes' (a unique building) for drinks,... Read the full Fort De Soto Park review
