When you spend your day basking in the sun, you want to spend your nights showing off that tan - and maybe even your best moves on the dance floor. From hot nightclubs to cool lounges (with both indoor and outdoor areas) there are plenty of places in St. Pete/Clearwater to see and be seen. Here's just a sampling.
The Canopy Rooftop Lounge at the Birchwood Hotel not only serves tapas and martinis, it serves up amazing views of Tampa Bay and the St. Pete skyline. Cozy up in a private cabana and watch the colorful sky as the sun goes down.
