The hotel has a good protected harbor and it looks right out on some of the best Trout and Redfish flats in Tampa Bay. It is about a 15 minute run to the Gulf via Pass-a-grille Channel or Bunces Pass. It has a couple of pools and a pretty nice Tiki Bar looking over the bay.
For those in the band width that want to camp, the Pinellas County - Ft. Desoto campground is 10 minutes away by car and 12 minutes by boat. For those with Seafaris, who want to stay aboard, lots of good protected anchorages nearby with showers and bathrooms at Ft. Desoto.
I'll be glad to look into it a little further if I ain't steppin on nobodys toes. I'm just think'in if we don't do something soon, we wouldn't be able to find any place - we'll be fishin' in an abondoned phoshate pit and stayin at Bob's Country Bunker in Mulberry!
