Fort DeSoto County Park St. Petersburg Reviews from The Last Year
Fort De Soto Park Beach is a stunning destination with
Fort De Soto Park Beach is a stunning destination with beautiful white, soft sand and clear, calm waves. The park offers free accessible wheelchairs, making it inclusive for everyone. There's ample parking available for just five dollars for the entire day, which is quite reasonable. Overall, it's a wonderful spot for a relaxing beach day.
You can't go wrong with fort the Soto.
It's always an amazing fun day specially at the pier. Fishing, collecting shells, swimming anything you can think of. Water is usually clear. If going for fish recommend a small hook with fresh shrimp!!

* Ft DeSoto is a Pinellas County Park- not state* My pups and I love the off leash dog beach and the huge fenced dog parks.
Beautiful park with a historic fort and plenty of wildlife
Beautiful park with a historic fort and plenty of wildlife to see! We even saw a manatee.
This is now one of my favorite beaches! Tons of parking,
This is now one of my favorite beaches! Tons of parking, picnic areas, bathrooms, snack bars, sand bars you can rent kayaks.... We seen a manatee. It was gorgeous. I loved our day and will be back.
I love this place! This park has something for everyone.
We wanted an uncrowded beach area. We chose the closest place by the Ft De Soto Store. It was perfect. The store had a picnic area. The park also has picnic tables a short drive from the store. If you have pets, there is an area that is pet friendly. There is also an area for camping. You can also walk on trails. We researched each area by watching You tube videos. It costs $5 to park all day. I saw a pay station at the park entrance and by the store. We walked around the park. There was a section of trees full of parrots. If you are bringing snacks, take a cooler or a chill bag with a zipper. The seagulls have one mission: stealing your food. If you step away from your bag, they will aggressively snoop through your stuff and take anything. They can untie knots on cloth bags. I am pretty sure they would shank you for a bag of chips. The beaches are awesome. This location is a wonderful treasure.
Nice beach.
Bathrooms are clean. Undercurrent isn't too strong going out to the water. And they've got several good size shelters over the picnic benches. Nice park, nice facility. I only went to the one beach. I think it was the east beach. No nudes there that day. Enjoyed it and would recommend it.. The parking is five dollars per car. It's on an honor system. But I did see Park people driving around, so I'm not sure if they check it. They might. Best option would be just to put your card in, enter your plate number and be done with it. The other thing to know is, on the main road entering and exiting the park, (Pinellas Bayway) There are police sitting off to the side of the road , patrolling your speed. I don't think they have a problem with pulling anyone over & writing a ticket. So, it's best to watch your speed in and out of the park.
Gorgeous campground/park and amazing location! Lots to do
Gorgeous campground/park and amazing location! Lots to do around. Gorgeous views and Playground at campground. 10/10
We visited for De Soto State Park recently.
We made a beeline for North Beach as we heard. It was the best for shelling. Parking is five bucks. As we approached North Beach, we heard a live band and a lot of fanfare. There were tons of people. It turns out that this was an event sponsored by a local church and was baptism on the beach. We decided to check out other parts of Fort De Soto Park, so we returned to the Gift Shop, Snack buildings. The beach there was less populated and a better experience. Unfortunately, the gift shop was closed as it was already 6 PM. Overall a good experience.
beach Day
Great beach day at Fort De Soto Park. Entrance fee includes parking and there are plenty of spaces. A bit of a walk to the beach. There are washroom facilities as you walk in. A great place for families to spend the day. No lifeguards.
This is probably one of my favorite out of the way
This is probably one of my favorite out of the way locations relatively close to home. With a large park, beach, with trails and picnic areas there are a lot of choices to do things or jsut to hang out. You used ot have to pay for entrance and parking at a booth when driving in, but now you can pay at machines in the parking lots or use an app. When you drive in the road splits off, to the right iot gfoes to the north beaches and to the left it goes to east beach. I'd rather NOT tell you how nice the beach is as I like it to stay relatively crowdfree if possible... Its clean here with bathrooms and other amenities that will keep you comfortable. Notably, cerain beachses didn't seem to have lifeguards so that's something to consider But otherwise, you can spend a LOT of time here by yourself or with friends/family and enjoy the natural beauty of Florida nature. As a bonus, if you're familiar with Air Fest and are visiting during that time of the year: if you're on the beach during the festival you can watch the jets flying around MacDill AFB (and not deal with the crowds on base. Ft Desoto is defintiely a place you should add to your list to visit. Whether you are from Florida or not, this is a great place to visit!
Best dog beach ever!
We brought two of our dogs here and had a fabulous time! You could walk the dogs off leash if they were under voice control. Ours stayed with us! Which was nice to see as usually they wander! I highly recommend this beach.
Tips
Extensive clean beach, white sand, calm water, North Beach has snack bar, umbrella and chair rental available Tips: In spring, rental for umbrella and chairs at snack bar on North Beach closes by 2:00. Chairs and umbrellas have to be returned by 3:00. You need a car to get to the park or bike, if you are a good biker. We Ubered and could get out there but had extreme difficulty getting an Uber to bring us back to our hotel. Don't risk taking a ride service there. If you like waves, you won't like this beach. Also, there aren't a lot of shells and nothing to see if you want to snorkel. This beach is best for families with very young children and inexperienced swimmers. Also, for those that just want to sit around on a beach.
A nice getaway spot
This is a beautiful natural spot, a nice quiet place to get away for the day. Beaches are beautiful, although the water was quite rough on the day we were there. Lots of space to spread out from other people on the multiple beaches and recreation areas available. Just a few things to note. There are 2 tolls while going into the park, it doesn't seem like there is any avoiding these and they are both cash-less. Secondly you will want to bring food with you or plan to have eaten before arriving as there didn't appear to be much of anything available nearby the park. Overall a nice place to visit and a bargain price at $5 for parking for the day.
took hubbards ferry to shell key for the day
took Hubbard's ferry for a day at Shell Key. found many shells and a few starfish and sand dollars. also saw some dolphins on the trip to and from the key. I would recommend this trip to parents who want their kids to be thrilled at how many shells they can pick up. P.S bring a big bucket.
Extra! Not far from the city
This place and just wow. We came during the week and there were few people. You have to go to the North beach which is very wild with sand worthy of the Caribbean. The animal fauna is also impressive with many herons and other birds. Near the pier we were able to see dolphins! Gorgeous
Beautiful place
We saw the fort it nice then. And then we walked the beach very pretty lots of shells nice day to be out there. Then we walked the trails. U can see the skyway bridge got a good picture of that. It cost 5 but worth it.
Wonderful park and beaches!!
This park and it's beaches are a gem! So different from the crowded commercialism at the other St. Pete beaches. Plenty of parking for $5 a day, restrooms, picnic shelters and lots of handicap facilities. Beautiful white sand and turquoise water, not to mention all the shells. So glad we found this!!
Worth the drive if you like white sand, nature and less crowds
Went to the beach and it is beautiful white sand and very pristine. Some have mentioned parking issues but we found parking very easy to navigate on the park mobile app. This is the same app you would use to park in most of St. Petersburg. Beautiful place, not crowded what more could you ask for.
Moved to the area a few years ago.
Decided to check this place out last week. I've been to old forts around the country, and this one isn't anything special. It's from the Spanish American War. It has half a dozen cannons and a few rooms. There are some cool picks and maps in one of the rooms. Beach nearby as well as a pier. It's worth checking out at least once.
Nice little state park
Nice little state park with the remains of a 130 year old fort. Four fine beaches and a nice view of the nearby small islands. Parking costs $5.
VERY PLEASED TRAVELER
Absolutely Beautiful, easy to get to and not crowded. The shells are amazing just love this place and will be back next year. Would highly recommend.
If you like big guns and sandy beaches this is the place
If you like big guns and sandy beaches this is the place for you.great for a little day of exploring. Check out whats left of the old fort withe several preserved huge artillery guns.the ruins on the beach is the coolest part for me. I explored on bike and I recommend it. You are able to cover much more ground this way.best part is other than parking it's FREE!
Great spot to visit! There is a beautiful beach.
It is longer than wife and has good sand. There is a pier and there were people fishing, swimming, sail gliding, and playing group games. The fort is very cool and there are informational plaques to teach you about the fort. There is also a shop and a little cafe for you to buy your souvenirs and any snacks/drinks you may want. I really liked this park a lot and will visit again.
Things have changed since my last visit of about 7 years ago.
There is NO MORE waiting at a gate/kisk to buy a ticket to enter the park. NOW, there are $5.00 parking machines that you use a credit card in. You just need your license plate #. WE went for birding, there were a few birds, but not many. The fresh water lake on the beach is corded off for nesting birds. Another inlet we used to go to to see birds, is called a restoration area, you can't cross. Getting there early in the morning we walked the beach and saw very few birds in the little water areas. There always is a few people walking the beach for shells. The Fort is nicely kept up and free to go into. The little gift shop store is FULL of anything you may have forgotten and I was pleased they had post cards. There was ice cream and some other foods you could order. There are plenty of flush toilet facilities throughout the park. Many beaches you can walk/bird/find shells or just sunbath. The fishing pier is always worth walking and watching people trying to fish is a hoot. . . But the real beauty is the white sand beaches which look so clean. . They/ people are doing a great job of keeping the beach clean, , and I love the NO DOGS on beach signs. . . I think this helps keep it all clean. This park seems to have turned into a BIKE PARK. .. so many paved trails and they are so great for family riding. This is a great park. . . thanks for keeping the fees so reasonable.
Beautiful dog friendly beach
What a beautiful place! We stopped with our dog for a picnic. The dog beach area is lovely and the fenced in area is extra large. There are many different use areas like a fishing pier, campground and historic fort. We will definitely return to camp and bike the trails.
Nickel and Dime Experience with no return for your money.
Avoid or bring lots of $$$$ to pay for nickel and dime fees or fines. This is my first and last time at this park. My money and time can be well spent else where.
Not a good experience.
Seemed to be nickel and dime to death. Save your money and go someplace that wants your business. This park appears to not want or care.
The Campground, here at Fort DeSoto has to be one of the
The Campground, here at Fort DeSoto has to be one of the prettiest I have ever seen. Lush palm trees abound, giving the ample RV sites, really cool privacy. We have good water pressure and 50Amp electric. It's a sandy spot, and backing in around the trees, requires a little skill, but very worth while.
It's a bit of a drive to get down here otherwise, I'd go
It's a bit of a drive to get down here otherwise, I'd go more often, but it really is worth the trip to visit! Gorgeous park with pristine beaches. I enjoy coming here in the winter to appreciate the wildlife, shells, etc. Get the annual park pass, it helps to support parks like this and keep them maintained!
Beautifully clear water, white sandy beaches and clean
Beautifully clear water, white sandy beaches and clean facilities for patron use. What else do you need?

Love this park so much!! It's great for running, swimming, fishing, kayaking, everything. I love coming here during sun rise to run and it's always so beautiful. They don't open til 7 am and you have to pay for parking. There is no admission fee though. Definitely would recommend!

Great Service - amazing dinner!!
Read about the site in NYT and bought a reservation at Mother Wolf in LA 2 days later. Worked great and the food was amazing!!!
Worked perfectly!
Got the reservation (that I couldn't get anywhere else) and was able to entertain a group of friends at the infamous Bern's Steakhouse.
Got into Nobu Malibu
Wonderful! My parents are visiting and we have wanted to go to Nobu Malibu for years. I tried getting a reservation myself but it was next to impossible. So glad I was able to buy a reservation on appointment trader for a decent price!
Very easy
Was very hesitant going into this experience but am glad to say that it worked out very well ! will definitely use appointment trader in the future
Fabulous Lunch
I was veeeeeerry skeptical that this would work, particularly at a restaurant as hard to get into as Nobu Malibu, and it was perfect! We had lunch outside on the patio and it was fabulous!
Great reviewer team
Just wanted to take a second to shout out the reviewer team. Even though they probably review hundreds of listings and bids a day, they still take the time to leave great comments and respond relatively quickly. Thanks!
Incredible
I got a reservation to Don Angie, which I've been trying to book for weeks! I am very happy with this service.
Best platform out there!
Super simple, easy, and fast to secure reservations for hard-to-get restaurants and locations!
This app is life changing
This app has opened my world up to so many wonderful new experiences I would never have the chance to have without access to this awesome app! 10/10!
Worked perfectly
Was a little nervous at first but was pleased to see that the booking went through flawlessly.
Highly recommended.
Success on Short Notice
Was able to snag an indoor table at Don Angie through an absolutely seamless worry-free process.
Worked perfectly, thank you!
This is a crazy holiday season in NYC and I was very pleasantly surprised to see that AppointmentTrader works! Will be using again!
Worked flawlessly!
Worked so well! I was a bit nervous, but everything went very smoothly. purchased the reservation, and got into the restaurant seamlessly.
Love this app!
So glad I came across this app :)
Quick table in Miami
I didn’t have my hopes high as it was a party of 4. In 24 hours I had a carbone reservation available! I was very happy as my family really wanted to come here
Prime time, great meal
So easy and had a prime time which I can never seem to get on normal res apps. So worth it
Got impossible NYC res
instead of waiting weeks I got my 4 charles reservation instantly
Worked perfectly to get into Carbone. So delighted
perfect
Worked well, got me into a restaurant with no availability
I was skeptical, and I still don't really know how they managed to find this hard-to-find reservation, but it was a win-win from my point of view, and I'll use this service again.
Last minute reservation for Delilah Las Vegas
Got a last minute reservation, dinner for 2 at Delilah Las Vegas: super impressed! The process was simple, transaction seamless. We had an amazing time! Couldn’t be happier! 😍
It works!
Ok at this point I've attended a reservation purchased on AT by a friend and sold a reservation personally. Both worked pretty smoothly, nothing sketchy about it. A few areas for improvement including a way to more directly communicate between buyers and sellers, but the app always seems to be in development. AT customer support is really(!) responsive and helpful too if you have questions!
Money transfer
As a seller, I like the fact i have the ability now to transfer money out of my AT account and into a bank account. Makes getting the money much easier then the process before.
Love this app
Got to go to places otherwise unreachable
Easy Access
Very easy to get into one of the hardest restaurants to reserve in New York.
Payouts Blocked Because of Sell Through Rate
Does anyone know how AT plans to handle cases where a seller is quitting the platform but has a sell through rate <25%? The error message I got said to fill more bids or find other ways to increase the rate.
Is AT really going to block sellers from withdrawing their money? Especially revenue made before the sell through rate was introduced??
Tune into NBC News - Top Story Tonight 7:40p ET
Let’s go. Get more people placing bids!
I will give you 50% of ALL of my PROFITS if you teach me how to make profits?
LOL. Thank you The New Yorker.
Appointment
Transferring reservations is not supported in AT. Why not just use the name in the AT screenshot?
Buyers interested in Bern's Steakhouse: PLEASE READ
Same goes for 4 Charles and I Sodi
Prepaid Reservation Fee
Agreed. Ultimately not addressing this month after month is clearly resulting in a drop in certain venue’s rankings & sales.
Congrats on 3 mil
🍾🍾🍾🍾🍾🍾🧨🧨🧨 now on to 30 mill!
Need to cancel a bid, not getting a response… how do I do it?
Click on "Take off the Market Option" in your portfolio
Working on your bid?
Your bid has been “matched” with a reservation. From the time a reservation has been located, the seller of the reservation must connect with moderator to give transfer information for reservation. If the seller;however, does NOT respond to reservation transfer, then your bid is reprocessed and returns to the first step, which is connecting your request to a reservation.
Process after bid is accepted.
Hey @EvocativeFold67, welcome to appointmenttrader! Once the reservation is in your portfolio, you definitely own the timeslot, the review team would not have approved the trade if the reservation wasn't confirmed - so you are going :-) Judging from your post you bid today and are going tomorrow - don't worry as long as you initiated the name transfer, you are good - the transfer service has to work with the opening hours of the reservation team of the respective venue. You will likely see the transfer confirmation a couple hours before your reservation time.
Where do the Reservations on AppointmentTrader come from?
Mostly from people who don't need their reservations or appointments any longer. AT has no relationship with places listed and acts as a platform connecting buyers and sellers making sure that listed reservations are real and that privacy is not compromised when transacting.
What happens if my bid expires unanswered?
Hey @FluffyStar64, thanks for the question! When you place your bid the amount gets transferred in a deposit account, the second you either cancel your bid or a few minutes after the bid expires the funds are moved back into your main account from where you can refund it to your payment method or use for other transactions.
