Coming to Saint Petersburg I need to find a reasonable hotel close to the beach not too pricey because me and my brother won’t be in there often and is Avis the best car to rent from

I am a local and all of the above are amazing ideas. There really is much much more. Go kayaking through the mangrove tunnels at Weeden Island Preseve. Take your dog to the dog beach at Ft. Desoto park or rollerblade, bike the trails there. Have lunch or drinks at the historic Vinoy Hotel in DTSP or at the Don Cesar on St. Pete Beach. Eat at the Hangar restaurant overlooking the waterfront AND the local airport. It’s really such an amazing city. Oh, and don’t forget to visit Gulfport, just outside St. Pete. They have a First Friday night market and numerous bars and restaurants all walkable on their waterfront.

In reply to Amanda Thurman. That's quite an endorsement coming from a resident of another state with gorgeous beach towns and stretches of sand :)

We love St. Pete too. We are from California and visit every year. We love staying at the Tradewinds Island Grand, but we love visiting Don CeSar. The beaches are so awesome and I love the local vibes.
