An open-air marketplace of local artisans and small businesses operates under a solar-roof structure steps from the bay. Not a pure farm market, but a great place to pair with Saturday Morning Market for locally made pantry goods and gifts.

Really nice place to visit, very trendy! The St Pete Grand Prix goes right by the pier. There's a lot of history here and the pier has evolved throughout the years to accommodate the growing area for tourism and recreation. There's a few bar/restaurants at the end of the pier and views out into the Tampa Bay for miles. This would be a spectacular place to see the sunrise 🌅. Also not bad for the Sunset 🌆 also.

recently reconstructed, there are many more restaurants, cafés, and play areas for children. You may also access a small beach lined with beach chairs. There is a bait & tackle shop at the end and fishing is allowed. You may need a fishing license. Bicycling, Roller blading, and dog walking allowed. paid parking and tram services are also available.

It's a nice place to take a walk as long as you don't get run over by the serious walkers, runners, bicycles, e-bikes and the trolly. Parking is $2 power hour, not bad but still have to pay. I hope you're not thirsty when you get to the end of the pier because drinks will drain your wallet faster than the candy and pop corn counter at the movies. The views are nice and I liked watching the small planes flying out of the airport just south of the pier.

After eating at Fresco's, I took the tram up the pier and visited the observation deck with their homemade ice cream for dessert. It was sunset and absolutely gorgeous! When the talented DJ started his set, it was impossible to sit still. The sunset was especially gorgeous this night and everyone was soaking it in. Evidently including the MacDill pilots who were adding their contrails to the awesome skyscape!

The St Pete Pier has so much to offer, for crowds of all ages, all throughout the day! First, you can really get your steps in here- the entirety of the Pier has to be at least 1 mile long. But they also have a tram you can take if you don’t or can’t do the walking. There’s a splash park for the kids and a playground, vendor booths with a fun and unique variety of knick knacks, and even an aquatic museum. Of course, there’s eats too for all the goodies. Perry’s Porch is a new edition at the start of the Pier- you need a reservation a few weeks in advance for that one. At the end of the pier Teak and Pier Teaki. Teak is a sit down restaurant on the second floor and Pier Teaki is the rooftop bar- that place is so cool and also serves food but it fills up real fast. It offers a stunning view of the St Pete skyline, especially at night. And in between there’s also a concessions. There’s tons of seating all around, and even a tiny beach right along the water. There is water so you don’t get dehydrated and even free sunscreen. They host many events & festivals in the area too and it’s a great place to hang out.

Absolutely stunning place! From the moment you walk in, you can feel the incredible energy—warm, vibrant, and so alive. The atmosphere is simply amazing, beautifully designed, and full of great vibes. It’s one of those places that makes you want to stay longer, take it all in, and come back again. Truly a gem with an unforgettable ambiance.

Great spot to walk around and relax. The pier is really clean, modern, and has amazing views of the water and skyline. Plenty of places to sit, take photos, or just chill, and it’s especially nice around sunset. Good food options nearby and a great vibe overall. Definitely worth visiting if you’re in St. Pete.

Amazing views, truly wondrous from the restaurant at the top. The photo I included does not do the experience justice. The food was great there as well. I like the native plants on the walkway. A great, positive atmosphere overall. Highly recommend.
