Climate
Summer is hot on this island. July temps average 90 degrees Fahrenheit, and the mild winter added to the slow pace makes this a favorite spot for northern “snowbirds”. The summer months tend to be the rainiest, but storms are typically brief and pass through quickly. Many Indian Shores beach rentals bump right up against so the ocean, perfect for cooling off.
Getting around
Renting a car after you land at Tampa International Airport or St.Pete-Clearwater Airport makes getting around easy. For those without a car, the Suncoast Beach Trolley serves the coastal towns from Clearwater to St. Pete Beach. Trolley fare is only $2 and it is a fun way to hop from beach to beach.
