Find a piece of treasure or just enjoy searching for one in cozy antiques districts.
St. Petersburg
Wander about St. Petersburg's Grand Central District to find an array of antique shops scattered along Central Avenue. Make your way to 4th Street, heading north from Central Avenue and you'll come across a handful of antiquing options located between the 10th and 15th block, including Patty and Friends Antique Mall and Janet's Antiques.
Clearwater
Nestled next to a residential area, Antique Alley in Belleair Bluffs, this tight village of one-story buildings holds more than a dozen individual shops, making antiquing not only fun but convenient too. Check out one that specializes in Oriental rugs, or if Civil War relics are more your taste, you'll find that too. And speaking of taste, you'll find several close by restaurants, including a small French Bistro and cafe.
Tarpon Springs
There are several antiques stores and malls within the same block in historic downtown Tarpon Springs. The Court of Two Sisters, with more than 30 vendors, is a good place to start. Wander past downtown to the Sponge Docks along Dodecanese Blvd. for even more shops and restaurants.
Beyond...
The highly walkable downtown districts of Gulfport and Corey Area in the Southern region and Dunedin to the North both boast a sprinkling of antique shops among the many restaurants and art galleries that can be found here.
