If you're like me, I always wondered how did the town of Pass a Grille get its name?
At the southern tip of St. Pete Beach (past the Don Cesar), this is the epitome of Old Florida. One of the most popular beaches in the area, it skirts the west end of charming, historic Pass-a-Grille, a neighborhood that draws tourists and locals alike with its stylish yet low-key mom-and-pop motels and restaurants. At Pass-A-Grille there's a sunset celebration each night at a pavilion/snack shop on the stretch of beach between the ends of 9th and 10th avenues. On weekends, check out the Art Mart, an open-air market showcasing the work of local artisans. Amenities: food and drink; parking; showers; toilets. Best for: sunset; windsurfing.
Pam’s tip: Whether you’re a visitor or a resident to Pass-a-Grille a trip to the Gulf Beaches Historical Museum is a must-see. This St Petersburg gem is located in the heart of Pass-a-Grille historical district (the very south end of St Pete Beach). You will be sure to get a good feel of what life was like along our Gulf beaches before World War II. The museum also documents the amazing story of the “Pink Palace”, the Don Cesar which opened in 1928.
