About Pass-a-Grille Beach
Pass-a-Grille is the historic, quaint southern tip of St. Pete Beach on the Pinellas Gulf coast — a walkable old-Florida town of small shops and cottages beside a quiet, warm-water beach. It's a calmer, more charming counterpoint to the resort strip just to the north. Rip currents are Florida’s deadliest beach hazard, so check the safety flag and rip-current risk above, follow posted flags, and swim near a lifeguard.
