Event Details
See the Burg through new eyes as Monica walks you through the history of St. Pete’s wonderful waterfront from Demens Landing to Vinoy Park.
Event Details
This tour visits the breezy and beautiful waterfront to study its evolution from a gritty coastline filled with fishing boats and smokestacks to a glittering promenade teeming with tourists.
We’ll learn about the waterfront parks, the history of Spring Training, and how zoning changed Beach Drive. We’ll view the stunning Vinoy Hotel and the prettiest public restroom, while gaining an appreciation for how the things we don’t see anymore – like the segregated beach and the grand hotel that Hollywood blew up, have influenced our past.
PERFECT FOR: Tourists + Locals looking to understand the importance of urban planning, baseball, and tourism in the city’s history (and a breezy stroll!)
THE DETAILS: Rotating Sat. afternoons • 1.5 hours • 1.5 miles
Tour Details
This tour starts at 1:30pm and will last 1.5 hours and cover 1.5 miles of flat terrain. We’ll provide a bottle of cold water at the beginning of the tour that participants can carry with them. Guests also may enjoy half price on any drink from Kahwa Coffee either before or after the tour, with a voucher provided by your guide. Tickets are $25 per person and are limited to 25 attendees per tour. The tour will begin on the bridge to Demens Landing at 1st Ave South and Bayshore Dr. Southeast, in downtown St. Petersburg.
