I do my Florida boating in the southern most area of Saint Petersburg.

In Google Maps you can get a nice satellite view by searching for”Fort De Soto Park”.

There you will have access to:
The Gulf of Mexico
The Gulf Intracoastal Waterway
Tampa Bay
Shell Island Preserve
Egmont Key
New Island

Unless it is really windy you will always have a place to go.

For longer trips you can cruise north to Clearwater Harbor or south to Anna Maria Island.

I am sure there are better (and worse) places in Florida but for the last sixteen years it has been great for us.

Tierra Verde Marina probably can slip or rack your boat.
