City of St. Pete BeachThe City of St. Pete Beach is a barrier island community located just off the Pinellas County mainland of Saint Petersburg, just south of Treasure Island, and 20 miles from Clearwater Beach. With miles of pristine, white sandy beaches, year-round sunshine, an abundance of recreational opportunities, restaurants, and shopping, St. Pete Beach is one of the most enjoyable places to live and vacation, in the world. The City of St. Pete Beach has a permanent population of about 10,032, but is also a popular winter residence for people living in other parts of the United States, Canada and Europe. Nearly 28 percent of the total residential homes and condominiums in St. Pete Beach are owned by people claiming primary residence elsewhere, reflecting a high volume of seasonal visitors. St. Pete Beach TourismTourism is an integral part of St. Pete Beach’s economy. We’re within 30 miles of both St. Petersburg-Clearwater International Airport and Tampa International Airport. A clean, safe public transportation system, the Suncoast Beach Trolley, allows for easy accessibility throughout the area. In St. Pete Beach alone there are over 3,000 vacation accommodations available to visitors, including major hotel and resort condominiums, as well as motels and smaller, more intimate lodging facilities. People come from all over to stay on our world-class resorts and hotels. Sometimes they like it here so much, they never leave! Whether you’re a local resident, you wish to vacation here, or you are considering making St. Pete Beach your permanent home, you can visit our website for frequently updated community news and events, including information on city government, our businesses, housing, tourism, public parks and recreation, our community center, public pool, job openings, and more. St. Pete Beach HistoryThe city was incorporated in 1957 with the consolidation of the Towns of Pass-a-Grille, Don CeSar, Belle Vista, St. Petersburg Beach and unincorporated Pinellas County to become the “City of St. Petersburg Beach.” In 1994, the citizens voted to shorten the name to “St. Pete Beach” to lessen the confusion with the City of St. Petersburg, located on the mainland to the east. Even with the name change in 1994, the city of St. Pete Beach is still frequently misspelled “St. Petes Beach,” “Saint Petersburg Beach” and “St. Petersburgh Beach.” Despite the confusion, our vibrant beach community – a collection of families, businesses, and tourist attractions – continues to thrive socially and economically, thanks to year-round gorgeous weather, entertainment, attractions, and public safety.
