WATER & COAST
Caladesi Island State Park Beach
Pinellas County · Gulf Coast
An island reached only by boat: the ferry from Honeymoon Island, or your own. Undeveloped Gulf shore on one side and paddling trails winding back through the mangroves on the other. The marina docks are open for day use only, with one dock still being rebuilt; power and water are back, at $7 a boat on top of the entrance fee, and overnight stays are not available. Restrooms, showers, picnic pavilions and an interpretive exhibit near the dock, with a food vendor and gift shop. Open 8 a.m. to sunset, $6 a boat.
