Editor's take
A standout Gulf-and-bay beach destination with soft quartz sand, family-friendly shallow water, and a rare dog-in-the-water beach—strong amenities across multiple shorelines.
Fort De Soto Park’s Gulf and Tampa Bay beaches offer nearly 3 miles of quartz sand, shallow warm water, seasonal lifeguards, and a dedicated dog swim beach.
