St. Petersburg, FL

St. Petersburg is appropriately dubbed "The Sunshine City" because it holds the Guinness World Record for the most consecutive days of sunshine. The city offers visitors a one-of-a-kind blend of traditional beach getaway and urban flavor. The white, sandy beaches provide views of spectacular sunsets, and the 7 miles of waterfront parks invite visitors to participate in a variety of activities such as hiking, camping, and kayaking. A thriving creative renaissance also promises a diverse cultural experience, whether through the world-renowned Dal Museum or the Museum of Fine Arts. Every year, the city hosts over 1,000 events, ranging from the St. Anthony's Triathlon to Ribfest, a celebration of barbecued ribs and touring bands.

These events are frequently held in downtown areas, which are densely packed with shops, restaurants, and craft beer pubs that come alive after the sun goes down. With so much to offer, the sun-kissed city is a popular destination for visitors of all ages: families will enjoy the relaxing outdoors and teeming wildlife, while the younger set will enjoy the lively nightlife.
